Settings, Profile and Preferences ​

Settings are available through the authenticated application shell. The settings area includes account data, password changes, two-factor authentication, application updates and app information.

Account profile ​

Users can edit supported profile fields for their role.

Typical editable fields include:

  • first name
  • last name
  • email where permitted
  • group for students
  • university or faculty association where permitted by role and backend rules

Password change ​

Users can change their password by entering the current password and a new password.

Two-factor authentication ​

The settings area includes two-factor authentication controls. Users can enable or disable 2FA and, where supported, configure TOTP.

Security recommendation:

  • enable TOTP for privileged roles
  • store recovery codes securely
  • rotate credentials after suspected compromise

Active sessions ​

The shared session section displays session/security context and includes logout controls for the current device.

Account deactivation ​

The account section includes deactivation flows. Deactivation requires password confirmation.

Updates ​

The update section checks release information and can display release details, update progress and update actions depending on the frontend deployment mode.

Application information ​

The info section shows application metadata such as app name, version, environment, platform information, author details, changelog and status system links.

Language and theme ​

The frontend includes language and theme contexts. Users can switch supported languages and UI appearance through the application shell controls.
