9 -Choose your name and email

How to choose your name and email:

Make your profile fitting and functional! Change your Profile Name or add additional email addresses to your workspace.

Changing your Profile Name

By default, your profile name will be the email address you used to login to your workspace. Your profile name will appear in the top right hand corner, and others will see this name when you make posts or leave messages. Creating a unique profile name will allow students to identify you and will make your profile more personal.

To change your profile name:

Go to your workspace (https://my.pbworks.com/)
Click on the "Profile" tab at the top
Under Basic Info, enter your new profile name (i.e. Mrs. Sherwood)
Click the Save button.

Tip: While you're there, you can also add other information such as location and contact information. But remember, this information will appear on your profile for others on your workspace to see, so only give out information you feel comfortable sharing!

Want to receive emails as a different address than the one you login with? No problem!

You can easily add more email addresses to your profile and select which email you want to have as your primary contact.

Go to your workspace
Click on the "Email" tab at the top
Add an additional email address under "Add another email address"
Click on the "Submit" button

The new email address will then appear at the box at the top of the page, but it must be verified. When you click on the "verify now" link, an email will be sent to that address asking you to verify your email account (so check your email!). Once your email is verified, you can then choose which address you want as your primary contact.

Here's what page you should be viewing:

Just a thought: This page also allows you to change your password for your account, which you may want to do if you're starting a new class or school year.
