As a member of the epilepsy.com community, from time to time you may wish to edit or modify your account settings or your community profile that is visible for other epilepsy.com members. To get started editing your account, click the "Manage My Account" link that appears in the gray bar near the top of the page when you are logged in. This will present you with a hover window open to the default view of your Account Information, which includes details about your account itself, your name, and email address. Additional tabs on this view allow you to see your Account Preferences and your Community Profile.

Manage My Account Tabs
On the Account Information tab, you can click the orange "Edit Account Info" to be taken to the registration section and change your email address, password, and security question. A second orange button, "Find People Like Me," is also present which takes you to a form where you can search for and find other epilepsy.com members who meet your search criteria.

The Account Preferences tab provides a quick preview to the questions you answered upon registration, including your choices for email notifications from epilepsy.com, your blog title, site-wide signature (for blogs and community forum discussions), among other items. To edit any of these details, click the orange "Edit Account Preferences" tab which will take you to the registration section where you can make any edits needed. Additionally, like the Account Information tab, from here you can easily jump to the Find People Like Me search to find other members.

The third tab, Community Profile is the central location for information about yourself, including your interests and hobbies, epilepsy therapies, gender, age, location, and whether you wish to make your profile visible to the epilepsy.com community. If your profile is public, other members will be able to view what you have entered and shared when they click on your username throughout the website. To edit any of the information stored within this tab, just click on the orange "Edit Profile" button in this tab to go to the registration section. Again, you can optionally jump to the Find People Like Me search to find other members.

Registration Pages
When you go into any section of the registration pages, you will be able to make any changes you wish and return to the website by clicking the orange "Submit and Login" button. If you wish to keep editing, the tabs across the top of the page allow you to quickly jump between the Account Information, Account Preferences, and Community Profile sections.

Subscriptions
Within the Registration pages live your email subscriptions for epilepsy.com. Clicking on this tab takes you immediately to your Forums subscriptions, a list of all forum discussions that you have subscribed to. Similar lists exist in the tabs each for Blogs and Groups. To unsubscribe from a particular discussion, blog, thread, or group, simply uncheck the box next to that item and click the orange "Save Subscriptions" button.

The fourth tab in the Subscriptions shows your tag subscriptions. Tags are organized based on their content type throughout epilepsy.com, meaning that it is possible to subscribe to receive email updates for the keyword 'surgery' in blogs, but not in editorial content. For each content type, you will need to save your subscriptions individually. To sign up for a new tag-based subscription, click on the content type you wish to subscribe to. Then, in the text box, type in the term (or terms, separated by commas) you wish to stay updated on. When you have entered all the terms and content types that you wish, be sure to click the orange "Save Subscriptions" button in order to save these preferences. To unsubscribe from a tagged subscription, uncheck the box next to that tag and click the orange "Save Subscriptions" button.
