Profile Page

Every user in GeoHazardWatch has a Profile Page — a personal page automatically created when your account is set up. Your profile page is named Profile: Your Name and is accessible at /view/profile-your-name.

Who Can See Profile Pages

Profile pages are visible to any authenticated user — meaning anyone who is logged in, including Occupants. Anonymous (not logged in) users cannot view profile pages.

The page author themselves can always edit their own profile page regardless of role.

What Is a Profile Page?

Your profile page is your personal space on the platform. Out of the box it includes sections for:

• About Me — a brief introduction, areas of expertise, or anything you want others to know
• My Contributions — pages you have created or edited
• My Projects — areas of focus or ongoing work
• Contact Information — how others can reach you
• Links and References — useful resources you want to share

You can edit your profile page at any time to keep it current.

Finding Your Profile Page

• Click your name or avatar in the top navigation bar and choose Profile
• Go directly to /view/profile-your-name (e.g. /view/profile-jim-willeke)
• Use the search bar and search for your name

Editing Your Profile Page

Your profile page is author-locked — only you and administrators can edit it. Other authenticated users can view it but cannot modify it.

To edit your profile:

1. Navigate to your profile page
2. Click the Edit button in the page toolbar
3. Make your changes
4. Click Save

Author Lock

The Author Lock on your profile page means:

• Only the page author (you) and administrators can open the edit form
• Other users — even editors — are blocked from editing it
• The lock can only be set or removed by an administrator

This protects your profile from being modified by others.
