	Profile or content profile? by Michel Morelli :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hi all. I'm creating (for a client) a portal site. Now i need to manage users. In my past email I have ask for a migration utility/script/module from profile module to content profile modulo. But now I have a question: why I need to use content profile ? I have read that with content profile I can use cck fields (ok, tnx), but why ? Profile is usable vith views, so I can (for example) create a view where display only people from Italy. When content profile is better than profile ? Tnx. M. -- Michel 'ZioBudda' Morelli michel@...

One thing: why add file and image to the profile, when I can create an apposite new content type for it ? If I want to create an image gallery for the user I create a view based on "content type images" where its user uid is the uid of the user X. The same for the video: why insert a video in the profile users (content profile) when I can create a content type video and link it to the user X. I don't want to start a flame, profile vs content profile. I want to know if I need to use content profile or profile. I have 50+ users to import if will use content profile.
