Enable visitors to easily download or forward contact information in vCard format directly from your website using the Digital business card module.
You can add a Digital business card module by selecting Digital business card under the category Company information in the Add module overlay.
Here is an example of how two business cards next to each other could look like:
Content
You can feed person data into the Digital business card module either from Global Data or by entering it locally in the module itself.
Persons from Global Data
You can create as many persons as you want in Global Data.
Click the blue Create new download link button to create a new person.
When you have added persons to your library, you will be able to manage them like shown below:
When you add a Digital business card module to your site, you'll be able to choose which person you want displayed in the module.
If you enter person data in Global Data, you can re-use it across your website in multiple Digital business card modules, if you wish. To use information from Global Data, toggle Use Global Data source. If you have created multiple persons in Global Data, select from the dropdown which person you want displayed in the module.
Persons in the module
If Use Global Data source is not toggled, you can enter person data directly in the module. Be aware that any person data entered locally in a module cannot be re-used automatically in other Digital business card modules on your website.
