Hello all
I am new to this site and am not really an elgg expert, but rather a plugin-user I would say. In other words I am not really able to do much complicated programming, but editing of some php files is ok.
So my question would be:
How can one create different categories of users and list them nicely?
I am aware and using the profile manager plugin ( http://community.elgg.org/plugins/385114/7.5.1/profile-manager?annoff=100 ) and that seems to work great as a backend for user types. I was however very surprised that it does not seem to effect the members list page at all (e.g. what comes up under [elgg]members/ ).
I was hoping to have nice additional tabs with the profile-manager defined categories (or profile types) so that one can have a convenient directory of the different types of users very much akin to what I have already done with the community_groups plugin ( https://github.com/Elgg/community_groups ).
What I am trying to do is to have a differentiation between organisational accounts and individuals, and use the profiles of the former as a sort of business directory/yellow pages for our new Ugandan Water and Sanitation NGO Network website that is build with Elgg.
Any help is appreciated and I hope I am not just overlooking something already included with the profile manager.
Thanks!
P.S.: Maybe it would be possible to modify the community_groups plugin to do the same for members?

Basically this plugin has everything needed already (e.g. the base code is there, just not the full functionality):
http://community.elgg.org/plugins/1484399/0.1/featured-members
(with the minor issue that it overwrites the core-members plugin pages).
Is this simlar to
