The Account page shows your current email and a form to request a change.

Open Admin → Settings → Account. You see your Current email in a disabled field. Below it:

  1. Enter the new address in the New email field.
  2. Click Send verification link.
  3. AttendFirst emails a verification link to the new address. The link is valid for 24 hours.

The new email becomes your login address immediately. Two things happen for security:

  • You are signed out on all devices: phones, laptops, tablets, everything. Sign in again with the new email and your existing password.
  • A security notice is sent to your old email so you know the change happened.

If you change your mind

Until you click the verification link, your login email stays the same. Request another change any time. If the link expires, resubmit the form.
