Prifile Links & Shortcut Button to following or to a particular Discussion/topics

kaus19d 8 years ago updated by Gabriella Gogl-Gyorgy 8 years ago 3

From my suggestions point of view, the NEW SCN Beta can have the Social Network like Buttons which I am not able to find in the new SCN Beta. Also, like other websites, when we do sign up, they have buttons like sign up with LinkedIn profile or Google+ or Facebook, these things I am not able to find out in here. Also it can have in the home page after we login in the personal profile page, here if some page or content we are following or bookmarked for frequently browsing, I guess some option should be available for the user to manage that bookmarked/following pages as BUTTONS(can be made optional for the user if they want to use) or say in some discussion we have indulged ourselves would like to have a BUTTON created as shortcut to that page, could be more useful to users like me.

Hey Kaus19d,

There is indeed functionality like that:

- Go to any community platform (e.g. blogs.sap.com) and click on the avatar image on the top right corner. If you are not using SSO, you will be presented with the login page, where you have the opportunity to log in via your Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn or G+ accounts and link those to your SAP user ID (see screenshot below). You are able to see your already linked social profiles under your account settings at people.sap.com/manage.

- Social sharing is also available on the Blogs platform to share the blogs you like with one click. The same will be available on the Q&A system (answers.sap.com) too.

- To reach SAP's social media channels, check out the buttons at the very bottom of the page in the footer on Blogs or Answers. Will be available on the profile too in the upcoming months.

- Your personalized activity stream is the place to see the most recent happenings around content or people that you are following. You can get there by directly going to activities.sap.com or easily navigating by clicking on your avatar image in the top right corner after logging on and selecting "Followed Activities".

Hope this helped.

Best,

Hi Gabriella,

As per your suggestions I checked as below




But Alas!!! here in people.sap.com/manage, I can see as below



The 1st option that you mentioned, If I follow that at login time, will create another new SCN id for me? Here what I am trying to say is Say if I have the LinkedIn button in the home page of my profile in SCN, I will be easily able to jump to the SCN/mine LinkedIn profile with a single click from SCN, whenever required. I tried the Google+, LinkedIn Button is making me land on to the SCN linkedin page but saying something went wrong(maybe in LinkedIn some issue is there at present).

Hope I was able to put a bit overview of how I am trying to use the SCN here.


Again thanks for providing required assistance.


With regards,

Kaushik

Hi Kaushik,

The area that you marked with red refers to the screenshot that I showed in my previous answer. For example if you click on the Facebook button on that screen, you can link your Facebook account to your already existing SCN ID. It won't create a new ID on SCN. If you do that, you will see an entry on people.sap.com/manage (at the area you marked with red) that you have your Facebook account associated with your SAP (SCN) ID.

Best,

Gabi
