How to Change your Profile, Preferences, and other Squid-Settings

Do you want to allow people to contact you through your lens?  Do you want to share your favorite lenses with others?

Scroll down to find out how.  

Find the Profile Page

If you are logged in, you can access your "Update your Profile" page from anywhere in Squidoo. Just click on the "My Account" button at the top of the page. It is between "Squidoo" and "Hot Stuff"

This will take you to a page that looks like this:

Update Your Profile

Preferences

PreferencesOn the right side you can change your Preferences.

Safe Search: lets you block lenses with adult and mature content from your browsing and search results. The default setting is "on." To turn Safe Search off simply click on the "Edit" button.

Share My Squidoo: lets you share your My Squidoo page with other people.

Open External Links in a New Window: opens a new window when a visitor clicks a link.

Allow Contact: You can let other Squidoo members contact you from your lenses. They will not see your email--unless you reply to theirs.

For all of these options, clicking the edit button toggles the setting between on and off.

    This Lensmaster Profile tutorial is very helpful. It is an excellent guide. The profile is a very important web 2.0 marketing componet for branding you, your company's name and image.

    AHHH, finally - been trying to figure out the Contact Me thing all day. And it was sooo easy. Now, I am off to figure out how to do a lens roll and put a live link in my blurb!
