Account Settings

Holy Resource includes a personal Account Settings dialog for the currently signed-in user.

Open it from the user menu in the sidebar footer:

Select your name/avatar.
Choose Account Settings.

This dialog is about your own user account. It is separate from Settings → General, which manages system-wide church, database, sync, provider, and maintenance configuration.

Profile

The Profile tab lets you update your own user-facing details:

profile picture
display name
email address
phone number
short bio

The same tab also shows account reference details such as your username and the date your account was created.

Profile pictures must be image files and currently have a 5 MB upload limit.

Security

The Security tab is for password changes.

To change your password, enter:

your current password
a new password
confirmation of the new password

Holy Resource requires the new password to include:

at least 8 characters
an uppercase letter
a lowercase letter
a number
a special character

Use this screen when rotating your own password after staff changes, device turnover, or a suspected credential leak.

Preferences

The Preferences tab stores user-level communication and sync-alert choices for your current account.

Notifications

You can turn these on or off individually:

Email Notifications
SMS Notifications
Push Notifications
Weekly Digest
Maintenance Alerts

Sync & Alerts

You can also control:

Sync Notifications
Conflict Alerts
Auto-Sync

These preferences affect your own experience. They do not replace branch permissions, system sync settings, or administrator-controlled maintenance policies.

What Account Settings Does Not Control

Account Settings does not manage:

church profile details
database backup targets
messaging provider credentials
LAN pairing or server connection codes
organization-wide permissions

Use Settings → General for system configuration and branch-level operational settings.
