Project Description

Manage organisations, people and the relationships between them inside Plone and allow them to log in easily to your Plone site.

This product provides the content types Person and Organisation. Their schemas are editable by ATSchemaEditorNG. Person and Organisation instances can be created anywhere in a Plone site. Both content types are folderish to allow the storage of related content inside them. AT References are used to represent the relationships between organisations and people.

If you add fields in the schema editor and want to handle them in vCard imports and exports, you can customise the make_vcard and parse_vcard Python scripts in portal_skins/upfrontcontacts.

Person instances can log into a Plone site. This is made possible by subclassing the remember product's FolderishMember.

A nice contact manager UI derived from BaseCamp's people management is available when adding a Contact Manager to your Plone site.

More features:

Import and export contacts in CSV format.

Import and export contacts in vCard format.

Contacts has remember support and can log in to a Plone site.

Edit Person and Organisation schemas with ATSchemaEditor.
