Normally, you need not a module, because it is just a linked image.

But I wanted:

  • to select the image
  • to determine the position
  • several of them on one side, or distributed on several domains.


First, categories are created, in these categories then the XING profile(s). With the XING-Lister, you can select the category that are used. Each front-end module can be assigned their own template. Three different templates are included. (see "Using")
Thus, it is then possible, the categories to distribute on several layouts or several domains. Are there more than one profile in a category, all profiles will be shown from this category. Thus it would be e.g. possible to show the profiles of a whole team.
