How to Access Your Profile

To access your profile, at the top right of the screen select the username drop-down and click My profile.

Information You’ll Find in Your Profile

A quick look at the top of your profile will show your avatar, how many discussion posts you’ve made, kudos you’ve given and received, and how many of your answers were marked as solutions. Scrolling down the page will give more information on the badges you’ve gotten and discussions you’ve participated in. You will also see a list of the users whom you’ve given kudos, and those who’ve given them to you.

Edit Your Profile Information

You can edit your avatar in the “My profile” area, but the majority of the information you will want to edit is accessed via “My settings”. To access your settings, click the username drop-down and select My settings.
