To update a user's details,

  1. First, go to the user management screen for the user concerned. There are two ways to do this:
    • Either,
      • Go to the user's Profile and click the 'Administer User' link on the user's profile screen.
    • Or,

      Go to the Confluence 'Administration Console'. To do this:

      • Open the 'Browse' menu and select 'Confluence Admin'. The 'Administrator Access' login screen will be displayed.
      • Enter your password and click 'Confirm'. You will be temporarily logged into a secure session to access the 'Administration Console'.
      • Select the link 'Manage Users' in the left-hand panel.
      • Locate the user by doing a search on the username or the groups to which they belong.
      • Click the user link.
  2. Now you should be able to see the user's current details and links allowing you to edit them.
    • View Profile — View the user's profile.
    • Edit Groups — Add or remove this user from a group.
    • Edit Details — Edit the user's name and email address. Changing a user's username is not supported through the application, see Changing Usernames for other solutions.
    • Set Password — Edit the user's password details.
    • Remove — You can remove a user permanently if the user has not added or edited any content on the site.
