S409 tag to feature a Participant

Ali Burke 2

Is it possible to use the S409 tag to "Feature" a certain participants Personal Page?  It doesn't have any parameters so I was just wondering if anyone has done anything similair.

That tag embeds the Participant Center in a custom page so the PC can appear in the Teamraiser wrapper. That wouldn't be visible to anyone but the participant.



What are you trying to do? Are you trying to create a link to the personal fundraising page?

Yes, sorry,  I was getting confused with the terminology.  I was hoping to embedd a certain participants  Fundraising Page in a custom page, so we could have a link to a page that said maybe "Featured Fundraisers" and it would automagically, one of our top fundraisers.



Is that doable?

Sure, but I don't think there is a tag for it.



I would put an iFrame (http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_iframe.asp) on your custom page using the url to the participant page.

 

<iframe src="http://foundation.mydomain.org/site/TR/Events/EventName?px=1234567&pg=personal&fr_id=1234"></iframe>

Note that the red px=1234567 part of the url refers to the participant's ID, which you can find when you look them up in Teamraiser administration. Its just a bit easier to find than searching for their personal page url. Tons of links in TR follow a formula like this, which can be handy to figure out.

Thanks!  I can work with this!  Much appreciated

Automatically getting the top participant's ID won't be as easy.



I think I would try to get it using the API and some Javascript/AJAX, if manually updating the link is not acceptable.
