You can personalize Carerix by adding a profile photo to the menu section at the top right. If no profile photo is uploaded, the first letter of your first name appears in a colored circle instead.
Add or change your profile picture
Follow these steps to add or change your profile picture:
Go to Administration → Users
Select the relevant user
Click on the Attachments tab
Upload an image
Choose type Photo
Leave the Description field empty
💡 Tip! Use a square image (e.g., 400x400 pixels) for the best result. JPEG and PNG formats work best.
After uploading
After the next system restart, the uploaded image will appear in your profile menu.
If the photo does not appear, try the following:
Clear your browser cookies and cache
Refresh the page
Log out and log back in
Troubleshooting
Photo is not showing in the menu
If your photo still does not appear after uploading and refreshing, check the following:
Verify that you selected Photo as the attachment type
Go to Administration → Document Types
Find the Photo document type
Confirm that PhotoTag is selected under Document Class
Important: The PhotoTag setting is necessary for your profile picture to display correctly. Without it, the image will not appear in the menu, even after uploading.
How to enable PhotoTag
If PhotoTag is not selected:
Click Edit on the Photo document type
Check the PhotoTag checkbox under Document Class
Click Save
Ask your users to refresh their browsers and clear their cache
Error when uploading the image
If you receive an error when uploading an image:
Check that the file is in a supported format (JPEG, PNG, GIF)
Ensure the file size is not too large (recommended: under 2 MB)
Try uploading a different image to rule out file corruption
Permission denied
If you see a "Permission denied" message when trying to upload an image, you may not have the necessary permissions. Contact your administrator to request access to edit user profiles.
