Setting Your Preferences
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
As a user, you can manage your personal settings.
|
|
|
|
To access your personal settings:
|
|
|
|
1. Clicking on your username in the top, right corner of your ownCloud instance.
|
|
|
|
The Personal Settings Menu opens.

|
|
|
The Personal Settings Page opens in the main viewing window.

|
|
|
|
.. note:: If you are an administrator, you can also manage users and administer
|
|
the server by using the related links in the Personal Settings Menu.
|
|
However, these links do not appear to a normal user.
|
|
|
|
The options listed in the Personal Settings Page depend on the applications that
|
|
are enabled by the administrator. However, some of the default settings for
|
|
this page include the following:
|
|
|
|
* Usage and available quota -- Appearing at the top of the page, this
|
|
information provides the amount of space used and available for the user (in
|
|
Megabytes).
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: images/usage_indicator.png
|
|
|
|
* Password -- Enables you to change your password. To change your password, you
|
|
must provide your current password along with your new password. When
|
|
creating a new password, ownCloud provides a dynamic password strength
|
|
indicator for your assistance.
|
|

|
|
|
|
.. note:: If you would like the ability to recover your password through
|
|
e-mail, specify your email address in the Email field (see below).
|
|
|
|
* Full Name -- Enables you to specify your full name. This name appears at the
|
|
top of the Personal Settings Menu.

|
|
|
|
* Email -- Enables you to specify an email address for use by the ownCloud
|
|
server and administrator in sending you notifications. For information about
|
|
setting email notifications, see "Notifications" below.

|

|
|
|
|
* Profile picture -- Enables you to specify a new avatar (profile image) that
|
|
identifies you on the ownCloud server. By default, the profile picture is
|
|
the first initial of your username. You can choose to keep the letter
|
|
designation, upload a new image from an external source, or select an image
|
|
from any existing images in your ownCloud folders.

|
|
activities on your ownCloud instance. You can choose to receive messages
|
|
through an email notification or online stream notification. In addition,
|
|
the Notifications settings enable you to exclude changes that you make
|
|
yourself and obtain only changes made by others on your account. You can
|
|
obtain notifications hourly, daily, or weekly.
