| | Most Moodle sites allow users to edit their profile. This is done by using the ''Settings > My profile settings > Edit profile''. It is also possible for other [[Roles]] to edit a users' profile. |
| [[Student]]s are usually asked to edit their profile in [[Moodle]]. It is also possible for the [[Administrator|site administrator]] to edit users' profiles. These instructions reflect the 1.9 format of the user's page for the site administrator. A student has a shorter list.

| An initial password can be set by the administrator or bulk uploading, but this will force the user to create a new password.
| |
| | | |
| ====First name, surname====
| |
| The first two fields are quite self-explanatory. The first and last names should be those that the student is to be known by in the course. They will identify the student everywhere in the course.

| ====Email address====
| |
| klmelton03@yahoo.com
| |
|
| |
| ====Email display====
| |
| This controls the visibility of the address to others, allowing you to show or hide your email in the class. There are three options: you can set it so that all users (including guests) could see your email, or so that only other enrollees in the course can see the email address, or so that no one could see your email address at all.

| |
| ===General===
| |
| ====Choose an authentication method====
| |
| The administrator can select a particular [[Authentication]] method for the user. This is also the place to turn on the "[[No login]]" setting.
| |
|
| |
| ====Email format====
| |
| There are two "Pretty HTML format" (which means that the messages will be formatted with different fonts and colours to make them easier to read) and "Plain text format" (plain text with no fancy formatting or colours).
| |
|
| |
| ====Email digest type====
| |
| This setting determines how one receives any posts from forums to which one is subscribed. There are three possible choices:
| |
| * No digest (one receives individual emails),
| |
| * Complete (a single digest daily) or
| |
| * Subjects (a single digest daily with only the post topics included).

| |
|
| |
| ====Forum auto-subscribe====
| |
| This setting lets one decide if one wants email copies of posts that are added to forums. If you set this to subscribe, the system will automatically email one copies of new posts in forums that one posts in, unless they manually override it when posting.
| |
|
| |
| ====Forum tracking====
| |
| Enabling forum tracking means highlighting the posts you have not read yet, which should improve your forum navigation.
| |
|
| |
| ====When editing text====
| |
| This can usually be left on "Use HTML editor (some browsers only)". This allows for text formatting options, but requires newer browsers. If you find your browser is not letting you edit text, change this setting to "Use standard web forms".
| |
|
| |
| ====AJAX and Javascript ====
| |
| No: Use basic web features.
| |
| Yes: e.g., if you want to be able to drag and drop.
| |
|
| |
| ====Screen reader====
| |
|
| |
