Managing Your Profile

Managing Your Profile

Your profile settings control your personal information, account security, and preferences throughout LinkLoom. Keeping your profile up to date ensures smooth collaboration with team members and proper attribution on content you create.

Accessing Your Profile Settings

There are two ways to access your profile:

1. Click your avatar or initials in the top-right corner of the navigation bar
2. Select Settings from the dropdown menu
3. Navigate to the Profile tab

Alternatively, you can access profile settings directly from the sidebar by clicking Settings and then Profile.

1. Click on the Full Name field
2. Enter your preferred display name
3. Click Save Changes

Your name updates immediately across all your content and team views.
