Account settings
Profile, password, app theme, and where billing lives.
Quick start
- Sign in and open
Settingsfrom the app sidebar or your user menu (/settingsredirects to/settings/profile). - On the Profile tab, update Avatar, First Name, and Last Name, then click Save Changes.
- Use the Settings tab list to open Billing when you need plans, tokens, or account credit (
/settings/billing). - You should now know how to open Settings, edit your profile, and find Billing.
Settings tabs update the URL to /settings/[tab] (for example /settings/theme). Bookmark a tab if you return to it often.
Deep dive
Settings tabs
Settings is a tabbed shell. On desktop, tabs sit in a left sidebar; on smaller screens they appear as a horizontal icon rail. Exact labels:
| Tab | Route | What it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Profile | /settings/profile | Avatar and name |
| Sign-in | /settings/password | Add or change a password, and change the account email |
| Theme | /settings/theme | App UI look (System, Light, or Dark) |
| Billing | /settings/billing | Plan, tokens, account credit, upgrade/cancel |
| Payment History | /settings/paymentHistory | Charges, invoices, and receipts |
Clicking a tab updates the address bar with history.replaceState so the panel switches without a full navigation reload.
Profile
Profile is the default tab. You can:
- Upload or replace your Avatar (or Remove an existing one).
- Edit First Name and Last Name under Basic Information.
- Save with Save Changes, or cancel to discard unsaved edits.
This is your Portura account profile — not the public portfolio intro fields in the portfolio editor.
Sign-in
Sign-in (/settings/password) is available for every account.
The page shows the email you use to sign in and any linked Google, GitHub, or LinkedIn providers. That email is your Portura login. It does not rewrite the contact email stored on a portfolio.
If the account has no password yet (email-code or OAuth sign-in), Add a password emails a code to the current address. Saving a password keeps email codes and linked providers working. You need that password before you can change the email.
When a password is set, Change Password asks for the current password and a new one. Change email asks for the new address and the current password, then emails a code to the new address. The email changes only after that code matches. Linked providers are removed, so this account can no longer be opened with a different provider email. Signing in later with Google, GitHub, or LinkedIn on the old address creates a separate Portura account. A provider can be linked again only when that provider uses the new email.
See Reset password and Sign in if you are locked out of the inbox or the password.
App Theme vs portfolio theme editor
The Settings Theme tab controls how the Portura app looks while you work (settings, dashboard, editors chrome). Choose Select a theme: System, Light, or Dark. The helper text says: Choose how your settings and workspace look.
This is not the portfolio Theme Editor.
| Need | Where |
|---|---|
| App chrome light/dark/system | Settings → Theme (/settings/theme) |
| Portfolio colors, layouts, section styles | /portfolios/theme-edit/[pid] — Theme editor overview |
Do not expect Settings Theme to change how your public portfolio looks. Use Edit theme from a portfolio workspace for that.
Billing and Payment History
- Billing (
/settings/billing) is where plan status, AI tokens, account credit, media storage hints, and upgrade/cancel actions live. Details: Plans and tokens. For current public plan facts, see/pricingand the FAQ — Help does not hard-code dollar prices. - Payment History (
/settings/paymentHistory) lists charges and opens invoices or receipts. Details: Billing and invoices.
Pro-gated product features (analytics, custom domains, and similar) often redirect Free accounts to Billing so you can upgrade from this shell.
Tips
- Open Settings from the sidebar Settings item or the header user menu — both land on
/settings→ Profile. - If Sign-in does not list a password form, use Add a password and the code sent to your current email.
- Use Settings Theme for the app UI; use Theme editor overview for portfolio visuals.
- Jump straight to
/settings/billingor/settings/paymentHistorywhen you already know which tab you need. - On Settings, use the ? next to the title for a short reminder and a Learn more link back to this article.
Confused by two “themes”? Remember: Settings Theme = app chrome; portfolio Edit theme = public page look.
Troubleshooting
I cannot find the Sign-in tab
- Open
/settings/password. The tab label is Sign-in. - If you use email codes or OAuth and have never set a password, use Add a password on that page. The tab is not hidden.
Theme changes did not update my public portfolio
- Settings Theme only affects the signed-in app UI.
- Open the portfolio → Edit theme (
/portfolios/theme-edit/[pid]). See Theme editor overview.
Where do I upgrade or see invoices?
- Upgrade and plan/token status: Billing — Plans and tokens.
- Past charges and receipts: Payment History — Billing and invoices.
