Intrexx Share 2.1 - Contacts

A social network is based on the exchange of information. An important aspect of this exchange is the spread of the respective personal networks of the corresponding recipients. In the case of Intrexx Share, the personal network is based on contacts. In principle, any Intrexx Share user can add any other Share user to their contacts. This contact is a connection between two Intrexx Share users which is always mutual. If a user is your contact, you are also automatically a contact of that user. There are, therefore, no one-sided contacts. The contact element is shown in the News module and on the personal page.



In the My contacts area, you'll see a selection of your current contacts. From all existing Intrexx Share users who do not yet belong to your contacts, random contact suggestions are displayed. If you'd like to search for a specific contact, you can enter their name in the Search field. This searches through existing contacts as well as contact suggestions. If a user is found, their profile image is shown in the corresponding area. To show all contacts and contact suggestions, delete the search term from the search field. The search field can be shown/hidden by clicking on Show/Hide search. Moving the mouse over a profile image, both of contacts and contact suggestions, a short summary of their profile information will be shown. Click on the picture of a user to open their personal page.
