Get started page
Key point: This page is here to help members activate their PageSeeder account and complete the initial setup process.

This page lets a new user confirm their personal details and activate their PageSeeder account.

Get started steps

Users usually get to the “Get started” page, after they click the Get started link in the email invitation.

When you click the Get started link in the email, you are directed to PageSeeder to start the activation process. The link contains a unique activation token valid for a limited time.

For developers: You can change the default token expiration time using the organization configuration.

1 Welcome screen

If the Get started link is still valid, you are first greeted by PageSeeder.

Click Next to proceed to the following step.

2 Enter your name

Enter your first name and surname. Your full name is the name displayed in the user interface and used in emails. If someone has invited you, these fields might already be prefilled.

You can always change your name at another time, from your account profile page.

Click Next to continue.

3 Pick a username

Although you can always sign in using your email address, you can also specify a username to sign in. The username can have letters, numbers, full stop, underscore and hyphen, but it cannot be all numbers.

This step is optional – you can skip it or set up a username at another time in your account profile page.

Click Next to go to the next step.

If an administrator created your account with a predefined password, you can click Submit at this point to complete activation.

4 Set your password

Create a password for your PageSeeder account. For security reasons, your password must be different from your username and email address.

You can change your password anytime through the security settings and password page.

Click Submit to activate your account.

Troubleshooting

Expired or invalid activation link

If you see a message indicating your activation key has expired or is invalid, you’ll need to request a new activation link.

To do this:

  1. Enter the email address that received the original invitation.
  2. Make sure you use the exact same email address that was initially invited.
  3. Click Send and a new activation link is sent to your email.

Already logged in

If you are already signed in to PageSeeder, you see an error message indicating that you need to sign out first to activate your account.
