 File:PreferenceHover.png
Logged-in Fandom users are able to set some personal **preferences** which tailor the way they read, write, and edit on Fandom to their particular style. These preferences are applicable across all Fandom communities, so the same preferences are applied on every community you visit. To access your preferences, move your mouse over your avatar at the bottom left corner of the screen. When you hover over it, a menu will appear, and from here select "My Preferences". This will navigate to the Special:Preferences page.

## What are the different tabs for?

This help page will walk you through the current preference options Fandom users have and explaining the effects of changing these options, addressing these in order from tab-to-tab.

Tabs are organized to clump together related preferences so that it is easier to find the relevant field to change. By default, there are five tabs on the Special:Preferences page.

Note that none of the changes you make to your preferences will be stored unless you press the "Save" button. You can also reset your preferences to the default settings you had when you registered for Fandom by clicking "Restore all default settings". *This can not be undone*, so choose wisely if you wish to reset.

### User profile

Basic information
* **Username:** Simply shows your username. You cannot change your username through the preferences screen. If you wish to change your username, please see this page on username changes.
* **Member of groups:** Lists the user groups you belong to on the current wiki community.
* **Number of edits:** Number of contributions (edits) you've contributed to the current wiki community.
* **Registration time:** Date and time for when your account was created (when you signed up).
* **My accounts:** Link to the interface where you can change your email address and password as well as manage connected account in 3rd party services.

Internationalisation
* **Language:** Just your language, defaults to English. In selected language, interface messages will show.
* **How do you prefer to be described?** This is, how system will mark your gender. (he/she/neutral)
	+ The purpose of this preference is for international languages in which proper nouns need a gender form.

Signature
* **Your existing signature:** Renders your signature, including all wikitext.
* **New signature:** Where your signature can be changed.
	+ Wikitext you use will be converted when the signature is used unless you uncheck the "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link to your user page)" box.

Email options
* **Email:** Here, you can see and change your current email.
* **Email confirmation:** Here, you can confirm your e-mail or see, when you've done that.

Appearance
* **Ads:** Registered users on Fandom can hide most of the ads that our anonymous users see, which can be considered a perk of membership. Some admins prefer to see all the ads on a community so they can understand the user experience for their anonymous readers.
* **Landing page:** Users can either choose between going to the Main Page of a community, to Recent Changes, or Community Feeds when going directly to the community's URL from the address bar. Clicking on the wiki's wordmark will also take you to the landing page of your choice.
* **Category page layout** Users can choose between **Dynamic** or the **Classic** category layout.

### Notifications

The email tab allows users to control the type and volume of emails they receive from Fandom.

Email notifications for all wikis
Now that you have managed your subscriptions to a page through the followed page feature, you can also choose how much communication you receive about those pages. These are fairly self-explanatory. Some quick notes:
* Communities with the old user talk page system rely upon the previous box of "my user talk page is changed" for those followed pages emails.

Unsubscribe from all emails for all wikis
Email communication is a critical tool that allows you to stay attuned on what is happening on your favorite communities as well as on Fandom as a whole.
The Email tab provides plenty of options to suit the types and volume of emails you receive from Fandom. If you have concerns about email, we would suggest you review your general email preferences first.
That said, Fandom does respect your right to not be emailed from our network if you do not wish to be contacted by us. As such, if you check this box, you will not receive any emails from Fandom until the checkbox is unchecked.
