  <h2 id="settings">Settings</h2>
  <p>You can access your settings by following the "Settings" link in the top navigation bar or from the <button>Settings</button> button in your profile.</p>
  <p>The settings page lets you set your avatar, change your personalization options, and change your password.</p>

<section class="guide-section">
  <h2 id="avatar">Avatar</h2>
  <p>When you upload an avatar, keep in mind that it will be cropped to a square and resized to fit 256 by 256 pixels. It's best to upload an image that is already square. Avatars must be no more than 1 MB in size. You can also clear your avatar, resetting it to the default one.</p>
  <p>To change your avatar, first press the <button>Browse&hellip;</button> button and select a file from your device, then press the <button>Save avatar</button> button to upload it.</p>

  <h2 id="personalization">Personalization</h2>
  <p>The personalization section of the settings lets you change the following settings:</p>
  <ul>
    <li>Theme
    <ul>
      <li>Set the appearance of the forum. This feature is still in beta and themes may change unexpectedly.</li>
    </ul>
    </li>
    <li>Thread sorting
      <ul>
        <li>Set the sorting of threads when viewing a single topic. "Latest activity" will put threads which had a response more recently closer to the top. "Thread creation date" will put threads which were created more recently closer to the top.</li>
      </ul>
    </li>
    <li>Display name
      <ul>
        <li>If set, your display name will show up instead of your username in most places. In a post's usercard, the display name will show up above your username/mention. In posts that have mentioned you, your display name will be shown instead of your @username.</li>
        <li>Display names have fewer restrictions than usernames, and most characters are allowed.</li>
        <li>If you do not wish to use a display name, you can leave the field blank.</li>
      </ul>
    </li>
    <li>Status
      <ul>
        <li>If set, your status will show up below your @mention in a post's usercard. 100 characters limit, no <a href="{{ url_for("guides.guide_page", category='user', slug='babycode') }}">Babycodes.</a></li>
      </ul>
    </li>
    <li>Subscribe by default
      <ul>
        <li>If checked, you will automatically add the thread to your subscriptions when replying to it. You can override this setting by checking or unchecking "Subscribe to thread" before posting your reply in the reply box.</li>
      </ul>
    </li>
    <li>Signature
      <ul>
        <li>If set, this signature will appear under all of your posts. <a href="{{ url_for("guides.guide_page", category='user', slug='babycode') }}">Babycode</a> is allowed (except @mentions).</li>
      </ul>
    </li>
  </ul>
</section>
<section class="guide-section">
  <h2 id="password">Changing your password</h2>
  <p>You can change your password by typing it in the "New password" field and again in the "Confirm new password" field, then pressing the <button class="warn">Change password</button> button. The passwords in the two fields must match.</p>
</section>
<section class="guide-section">
  <h2 id="deleting">Deleting your account</h2>
  <p>If you no longer wish to participate in {{ config.SITE_NAME }}, you may delete your account. To do so, press the <button class="critical">Delete account</button> button in your settings, which will take you to a confirmation page.</p>
  <p>Deleting your account is an irreversible action. Once you delete your account, <strong>you will not be able to log back in to it.</strong></p>
  <p>Deleting your account <strong>does not delete your threads and posts.</strong> They will be kept intact to preserve history. They will be altered to show up as if a system user authored them.</p>
  <p>If you want your posts and threads to be deleted as well, you may either delete them yourself or <a href="{{url_for("guides.contact")}}" target="_blank">contact the administrators</a> for help.</p>
  <p>If you're sure you want to delete your account, you will need to type your password on the confirmation page before pressing the <button class="critical">Delete account</button> button.</p>
