The Profile Settings page is your user profile hub. Here you manage your profile image and display name.
Accessing Profile Settings
- Open Settings
- Toggle to User Settings using the switch at the top of the settings sidebar
- Click Profile Settings
Profile Image
The profile image section lets you upload a custom avatar or choose from PawPlacer's built-in avatars. Uploaded images appear anywhere PawPlacer shows your user avatar.
To update your image:
- Upload a profile image, or select one of the built-in avatars
- Click Save Avatar when choosing a built-in avatar
- Wait for the success message before leaving the page
Display Name
Your display name is how you appear throughout PawPlacer: next to your comments, in activity logs, and anywhere your identity is shown to other team members. Click the name field to update it, then save.
Your login email is shown on this page for reference. Email changes are handled on the Credentials page.
