Enhancement - Ability to pull in Person Profiles from other sites #555

This will help prevent needing to create countless duplicate Person profile pages if we can pull in existing profiles.

We are in the process of transitioning over 60 lab sites over to Drupal 10 right now. In the process, we will be creating Faculty/Staff/Student profiles for each that could be pulled into the new college site when we start to transition that over in 2024.

Thanks, Matt

Hi Matt, this might be achievable using View Exports and Feeds. However, we've discussed the idea of an extended Person content type that could act as a content hub, potentially eliminating the need to create a Person content type on every D10 site and instead pulling in Person nodes from a central hub. I’m not sure yet how feasible this will be, and we’ll need further discussions to explore it in the future.
