The Contact content type is used to display structured contact information for individuals, teams, or departments. It helps users quickly find the right person or office to reach out to. Contact listings support consistent formatting and easy updates across directories and team pages. Contacts can be displayed in list or grid formats, with optional images. They can also be added to pages as automatic list microcontent, as shown below.
Common Use Cases
- Staff or faculty directories
- Department or office contact pages
- Support or help center listings
- Team member profiles with roles and responsibilities
Content Guidelines
- Include full name, title, and department or role
- Provide at least one method of contact (email, phone, etc.)
- Optionally include a photo, office location, or bio
Name and Title Formatting
- Use Dr. as a prefix for individuals with doctoral degrees (e.g., Dr. Jane Smith)
- Do not include “Ph.D.” after the name if “Dr.” is used (e.g., avoid “Dr. Jane Smith, Ph.D.”)
- If no prefix is used, credentials may follow the name (e.g., Jane Smith, Ph.D.)
Examples
- Correct: Dr. Jane Smith – Assistant Professor
- Correct: Jane Smith, Ph.D. – Research Scientist
- Avoid: Dr. Jane Smith, Ph.D.
