Last updated 6 months ago

Your profile

You can use your Donate PR user profile to let people know a bit about you. Projects you back might want to reach out to you, or you may want to use this page to show off your contributions or the Communities you manage.

You can access your profile settings by using the dropdown menu on your username and going to the Profile page.

On your Profile page, you are able to customize the following:

Cover image

The optimal size for a cover image is 2736x650.

Click on Edit cover to access to upload a new cover image.

After uploading an image, you are able to adjust it as you wish by either moving it and zooming in and out.

Main color

You can either choose any of the preset colors, add your own custom color or reset to the default color.

User Settings

To modify other profile information, click on the gear icon next to your profile image.

Here you can edit basic info such as Display Name, Legal Name, Company, Short description and Handle. Add your Currency and Tags, Social Links and your Location.

Access other settings such as Profile Page, Payment Methods, Payment Receipts, Gift Cards, Webhooks, Authorised Apps, Two-factor authentication, For developers and Advanced.

Advanced settings

Changing your email address

Go to Advanced and specify your new email address in the box under the Email address section. You'll get a confirmation, and then your new email will be active.

Deleting your account

You can only delete your account if it has no activity registered such as donations and expenses. Therefore, accounts with a history of transactions cannot be deleted —they are part of Community budgets and their integrity and accuracy depend on those records. You may archive your account instead.

To delete your account, go to the Delete this Account section and click on Delete this account.

Archiving your account

If your account has a history of transactions, your only option is archiving your account. Archived accounts will appear as inactive accounts and no new activity will be allowed. The next time subscriptions are due to be renewed (1st of the month), they will be cancelled.

To archive your account, go to the Archive this Account section and click on Archive this account.
