Site Information

On the Site Information page, you can change and edit the information related to your site profile. This page is divided into several sections that allow you to set defaults related to your sites:

  • Default Fields - Shows you a list of mandatory fields related to the site. These are fields set by the system. Some default fields can be toggled on/off as desired.

  • Site Picture - The site picture setting allows you to select a picture field in a form to designate as the picture field automatically.

  • Site Location - The site location setting allows you to select a geopoint field in a kobo form to designate as the location of a site. This is useful for changing or adding the location of a site to a project automatically.

  • Site Progress - The site progress setting allows you to set how the progress for a given site is calculated. Site progress can be calculated depending on the how you define a site and the nature of your project.

  • Custom Fields - Custom fields are additional fields that you can add to your site profile. More information about custom fields can be found below.

Custom Fields

Custom fields are additional fields that you can add to your site profile. You can create a custom field in the Site Information page to add new information to a Site Profile.

  • Type of the field - this refers to the type of data that is stored in the field. One option is "Select Value from Form" which allows you to set the value of this field based on data that has been submitted as part of a form. This is useful in allowing site profile information to be automatically updated as forms are submitted under the site.

  • Required Field - You can toggle this setting to require the field to be completed during creation.

  • Help text - guidance on what information to add to this field. This text appears in the site creation page.
