How to Update a Student’s Information on the Student Profile

 

The Student Profile Page makes it easy to update a student’s information. For example, if a student has a new phone number, you can update that right on the profile page. You may also find you need to make a few updates to students after a data import, depending on how up-to-date your student information was from your previous software or files.

Click the following link to find out how to enter a new student.

 

To add or change the profile picture:

1. Go to the student’s profile by typing their name in the Search field (upper-right corner) or clicking their name in the Student List (click Profiles and then Students in the left panel).

2. Click the large initial (if the student doesn’t already have a picture) or the existing picture.

3. Drop the image file you want to upload or click within the circle to open a file browser. Find the image you want to upload, select it, and click Open.

4. If needed, you can click and drag the image to re-center it. You can also zoom in or out on the image. With a mouse, scroll up and down to zoom in and out, respectively. On a tablet or smartphone, pinch in or pinch out to zoom in and out, respectively.

5. Click the Change button.

 

To add or update a student’s information:

Go to the student’s profile by typing their name in the Search field (upper-right corner) or clicking their name in the Student List (click Profiles and then Students in the left panel).

If you need to edit an item, click a section in the left column to expand it, and then hover over the information you want to update.

To use edit mode to update a student’s information:

You can also use edit mode if you need to edit multiple items.

1. On the student’s profile page, click the kebab (the three vertical dots to the right of the name) and then click Edit.

2. The left column goes into edit mode. If an item or section is not editable in this mode (for example, Programs & Ranks), it will be grayed out. Click in a text field and type to add or edit. You can also edit an item that uses a toggle, calendar, or drop-down list (such as SMS Enabled/Disabled, Birthday, or Belt Size, respectively).

3. When you’re done, click the Save button at the top to save your changes. The left column updates and leaves edit mode.

 

To add a second (or more) email address:

1. Go to the student’s profile page.

If needed, you can change which email address is the primary by clicking the email on the left side of the module, and then clicking the Primary toggle. Click the Save button to save the change. (The primary email address is the main contact, the email address that will receive announcements, messages from Message Flows, Event invitations, and so on.)

If needed, click Communications Preferences and click the toggle to turn off communication types. If a toggle is grayed out (off), the student will not receive that type of communications to the selected email address. Be sure to click the Save button to save your changes.
