Edit a member

Change someone's name, phone, email, birthday or picture.

Staff For staff and admins.

Staff can change anyone's details: a new phone number, a married name, a birthday. People can also change their own (Edit your profile).

Edit a memberStaff

  1. On the Members page, find the person.
  2. Select the pencil at the end of their row (on a computer, it shows when you point at the row). Or select them, then Edit. From their profile, it's Edit profile.
  3. Change what you need, then select Update member (marker 4 on the screenshot).
Editing someone who has an account, as an admin.
  • Picture (marker 1 on the screenshot): admins can upload someone's picture, and staff and admins can delete it. It shows everywhere a few seconds later. Everyone can change their own.
  • Permissions (marker 2 on the screenshot) (admins only): Disabled, Staff and Admin. See Staff, admins and disabled accounts.
  • Email (marker 3 on the screenshot): once someone has an account, their email is the one they sign in with and can't be changed here.

Can't save?Staff

  • You are not editing the latest version: someone else saved this profile while you had it open. Close the window, open it again, and redo your change.
  • Name is already taken: another member has that full name. It may be a disabled profile, which only admins see: ask an admin to check Disabled.
  • This account is disabled: only an admin can see or change a disabled account.
  • Unauthorized to update profile picture: only admins can upload someone else's picture.
  • First name cannot contain non-alpha numeric english characters: see Names with accents or a curly apostrophe.
