Account
Key point: Stores the personal details, user preferences, and credentials for a user.

To access PageSeeder, you need an account. When referring to users within the context of a group, PageSeeder uses the term “member”.

You can manage your account information through the various options in the account menu.

Essential fields

Every PageSeeder account requires the following information:

  • First name and surname – helps identify you, each limited to 50 characters (required).
  • Username – a unique identifier you can use to sign in (must be less than 100 characters and can only contain letters, numbers, underscore, hyphen and full stop) (optional).
  • email – your unique email that serves as your primary contact point (required).

You can update this information on your personal details page.

While an email address is technically not mandatory, having one is highly recommended because it lets you:

  • Activate your new account.
  • Reset your password if you forget it.
  • Receive notifications.

Only administrators can create accounts without email addresses, typically for system integration purposes. In these cases, a username becomes required.

Preferences

Your account preferences include:

  • Email attachment and vacation settings.
  • Your profile picture.
  • Layout and theme preferences.

You can customize these settings through your personal details page and preferences page.

Security fields

PageSeeder automatically tracks important security events:

  • When your account was created.
  • When your account was activated.
  • When your password was last updated.
  • Your most recent sign-in.

You can view this information on your security settings and password page.

For security purposes, additional user activity is recorded in the security logs, which administrators can review.

Who can create an account?

An account can be created through several methods:

For developers: Through the PageSeeder API, developers can create user accounts.

Account administration

Administrators can locate specific user accounts through the user accounts page.

Most administrative tasks, such as updating details, resetting passwords, or changing account status, can be performed from either the member panel or the account profile page.
