Editing User Profile

All Versions
Click for all versions
Table of Contents

Your User Profile contains basic information about you. If you do not have a personal space, your User Profile will be displayed when your name is clicked in the People Directory.

To edit your user profile,

  1. Click on the 'Preferences' link (or 'Profile' link, in Confluence versions prior to 2.3) located below the breadcrumbs at the top of the page.

  2. Click on the 'Edit Profile' tab. Enter details about yourself in the form that is displayed.
    • Full Name - enter your name as you would like it to appear in your profile.
    • Email - specify your email address which will be used when sending you mail notifications.
    • Information about me - Enter information about yourself that other users can view (such as your professional information, hobbies, and other interests). You can use Confluence markup in this field.
      Note that your Username cannot be changed.

  3. Click 'Save' to save your changes.

Handy Hint
Confluence administrators can configure Confluence so that it masks email addresses (e.g. 'example at atlassian dot com'), protecting it from search engine spiders and the like.
