This page contains settings useful for customizing the My Account section of your site. For now, the switches deal almost exclusively with the My Account Home Page.

You can select to use either the newer "My Account Page" layout or the older "User Management Home Page" layout. Examples of each are shown below (click on them to see bigger pictures). If choosing the "My Account Home" setting after upgrading from a version of the software prior to 4.0.0RC11, you'll want to make sure you include the (!MY_ACCOUNT_LINKS!) module (shown on the left in the first screenshot below) in the template used on the My Account Home page, so that your users can navigate their account settings. If you installed the software at version 4.0.0RC11 or higher, this is now the default setup, and already done for you.

My Account Home (New)

User Management Home Page (Old)

You can choose which page the user is directed to after they login here…to the user management home page or the site wide home page. Upon successful completion of login the user will be directed to the page you choose.

Here, you can choose the maximum number of rows you would like to appear in information tables on the My Account Page (this setting has no effect if you are using the old User Account Home Page)

The My Account Home Page organizes information into what we call, simply, "boxes." Each box shows information related to a different aspect of the software. The checkboxes in this section can be used to turn each box on or off. If a box is turned off, it will not display on the front-side of the site until it is turned on again (though any relevant data, such as which Auctions have recently sold, will still be tracked).

The "Recently Sold" row has a sub-setting that can be used to specify how far back in time (in days) the Recently Sold box looks when finding listings that have been sold. In other words, this setting lets you specify exactly how recent is meant by "Recently."
