Account and language settings
Your own settings are under Settings (the gear in the top bar): Account, at Account, and Language, at Language. Every user sees both. On the Account page a member sees only the password card; deleting the account is for the account holder alone.
1. Your name and email address
You can't change your name or your email address in OfficeDash yet: there is no screen for it. If one of them needs to change, get in touch through the Contact page and we will change it for you.
2. Change your password
- Open Account. The card Change password is at the top.
- Fill in Current password, then your New password twice, the second time under Confirm new password. A password has at least 8 characters and at most 128.
- Press Change password.
Changing your password signs you out on every other device. You stay signed in on the device you used.
3. Forgot your password
- On the sign-in page, press Forgot password?. The page "Reset your password" opens.
- Enter the email address of your account and press Send reset link.
- Open the email, which comes in the language you saved in OfficeDash, and follow its link. The link works once and expires after an hour.
- On "Choose a new password", enter your new password and press Save new password. That signs you out on every device, so you sign in again with the new password.
The page always gives the same answer, whether or not the address has an account. If the email doesn't arrive, check your spam folder and wait a few minutes before you ask again: OfficeDash sends at most 3 emails to one address per 15 minutes.
If the sign-in page has no Forgot password? link, resetting by email isn't available. Ask the account holder or contact OfficeDash.
4. Your app language and the TV language
- Open Language.
- Pick English, Deutsch, Nederlands or Français and press Save.
This changes the app for you only: its pages, the emails OfficeDash sends you and the sign-in on this browser. Other users keep their own language.
A paired TV speaks the account's language, which is the language the account holder picked under Language. There is no language per dashboard, and a member who changes their own language doesn't change the TVs. When the account holder changes it, the TVs switch at their next refresh, without pairing again.
To give one TV another language, add lang= to its URL with en, de, nl or fr, for example /tv?lang=de. That wins over the account's language on that TV. A TV that isn't paired, and the demo, show English unless the URL has lang=.
5. Delete your account
Only the account holder sees the danger zone Delete workspace on the Account page.
- Open Account and press Delete workspace.
- A dialog lists everything that is deleted: dashboards, locations, screens and paired TVs, announcements, employees, kudos, the HoorayHR connection and news settings, the subscription and your own user account.
- Type the name of the workspace to confirm and press Delete workspace.
The workspace, all its data and your user are deleted at once. A running subscription is cancelled at Stripe first. This can't be undone: there is no grace period.
A member can't delete the account. To leave it, ask the account holder to remove you under Settings > Users.
