Issue/Request: 

Hi, we just realized that many of our people listings (all in the Secondary Faculty Appointments, Affiliated Scholars and Staff sections) have vanished. Instead the pages say “no people to display”. As far as we know, we have not touched anything….

Please disregard this support question as we figured out what the problem was!

Glad you were able to figure it out. Would you be able to post what the problem was? Maybe it can help someone else work through the same issue.

Josue

Certainly Josue. It turns out that somehow a couple of selectors had been disabled in Edit View. In order for the People function to sort between the affiliations (full-time, secondary, affiliated, etc.), you have to enable People Type under Filter Criteria. We had done that, but only Faculty was grayed out in the selectors (see screen-shot below). For some reason, the other affiliations had “fallen out”. I’m sure we had accidentally done this but it’s not clear how it happened!
