The Profile Completion Assistant has been removed in Linchpin User Profiles 3.2, Linchpin Intranet Suite 5.2 and Linchpin Essentials 2.2.
Profile fields that are marked as "required" can't be left empty anymore, since saving a profile is not possible if a required profile field is left blank. Thus the PCA became redundant and we removed it.
Complete your profile
Profile fields content is important. It can help others to find you, it gives more information about you and the personalization of Linchpin relies on it. That's why filling out your profile completely is a very good idea.
Some profile fields can be marked as required.
The Profile Completion Assistant is a small application which will remind users to enter required information.
The message can be skipped, but the window will appear on every new login or page reload. To make it disappear completely, enter the required information.
If your admin has configured custom landing pages and your landing page has changed after saving, you will be redirected to the new landing page.
Enable the Profile Completion Assistant
Navigate to Confluence administration → Linchpin User Profiles → Profile Assistance.
In the Profile Completion Assistant section, activate the Activate checkbox.
Set profile fields to required
The Profile Completion Assistant will only appear if a user has not filled out all required profile fields.
To make a profile field mandatory, navigate to Confluence administration → Linchpin User Profiles → Profile editor.
Here, select an existing profile field (or create a new one). Activate the Required slider button
Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*).
