Hi We are trying to use the contact details webpart but are having problems with the images. There are 2 issues: 1. The image is not resized correctly some of the time. A simple page refresh can cause the image to be displayed correctly. A second refresh may take it back to the incorrect size again. 2. Some users images do not dsiplay at all. The images work fine on their mysite and elsewhere (e.g. people search) but not when viewed in the contact details webpart. Has anyone seen\have a fix for this? Cheers Mike

Hi,Issue #2 sounds familiar to me...The user image in the contact webpart will not update when a new image is added to the user's profile. The webpart keeps using the old image URL or shows no image at all. How can I force the webpart to update the image source?Harald

Having the same problems. Moss v3.0 SP1. Afterleaving the "edit page" mode, the picture is scaled properly. When doing a CTRL-F5 the image is cut off by the bottom of the webpart. Have seen some CSS tweaks to fix it in peoplesearch, using _width:77px; [source: http://blogs.tamtam.nl/diantha/2008/02/08/ImageresizerInPeoplesearch.aspx] Now, all I need to find a way to use it for the contact web-part. A KB-fix would be a solution...

Any solution with this? Seems like most Contact Webparts do not update their info (show old URL) or do not show a picture at all.

Alas, even SP1 did not fix that. I use the Hyperlinks webpart now instead of the Contact Details webpart. It shows the correct images and, if you want to put more than one person, you can add them quicker. Only the description text would not sync with the user profile content.

The hotfixes did not fix the problem either. However, I beleive I have found the problem. It would seem that SharePoint creates a user list at this location: http://[your_top_site]/_catalogs/users/detail.aspx Once the user is created it will not update itself. The workaround is to delete the user from this list and then re-import the profile. This will correct the links. Cheers

You are right! This is where SharePoint gets all the old information from. But, is it possible to delete the users from this list without losing their permissions on all sites?

Hi, the list: _catalogs/users/detail.aspx is exactly what I was looking for, but how can I recreate the same list in an other place? or can I give people permission to this list and where should I do that? thanks in advance, regards,

HiV r using Contact detail webpart but having some issue with photos.Photos are visible is Mysite and Search, but when using Contact details web part some users not able to find their photos(path is same for everyone)Help will be appretiate.RegardsNiyazRegards

it seems the problem only happens if the image is greater than 140x140. Once i cropped it to those specifications it updates automatically. Anyone else see that.

I had same problem. Check sharePoint groups and users Is there image for the user there? e.g. check http://[your_top_site]/_catalogs/users/detail.aspx Maybe the data is being updated to Sharepoint site. (for my case I suspect because I installed a new SSP). Delete user and add it again i Sharepoint in Sharepoint groups and users.

Guys, It is very simple. I have tried below workaround it is working as expected. But don’t know, what it is happening behind the scene. Workaround: 1. Go to Modify Shared Web Part of Contact Details Web Part 2. Expand the Miscellaneous section 3. Select the cache per user option 4. Apply the change and close. Thanks, K Senthilrajan
