Manage and update User Names and Types

Created by Travis Clapp, Modified on Thu, 28 Aug at 1:52 AM by Carolina Martin

Super Administrators can correct user type names (roles) and remove unused user types to keep the platform organised and ensure accurate role assignment.

  • From the user’s profile card, click the arrow down.

  • Select Update User from the dropdown menu.



  • The user profile screen will display the person’s name, profile picture, and current status (role).

  • Click the pencil icon next to the name or profile fields to edit.



  • Scroll to the Status field in the user details form.

  • Click on the current role tag (e.g., Approved Expert) to remove it.

  • Start typing the correct role name in the Status field and select it from the list of available roles.

  • Click Save to apply the changes.



Best Practices:
- Keep role names clear and consistent (e.g., Learner, Facilitator, Super Admin, Approved Expert).
- Avoid removing default system roles.
- Always reassign users before deleting a role.
