# Updating your info (and what changes when Planning Center is connected)

### **Summary**

The **Account** page lets volunteers review their basic account details and reset their password. If your church has connected **Planning Center**, your account fields will be read-only and must be updated in Planning Center instead.

### **Who this is for**

Volunteer

### **What you’ll need**

Before you begin, make sure you have:

- A Volunteer account in Safe Pathways
- Access to the **Account** page in your Volunteer dashboard

### **Before you start**

The **Account** page shows your basic identity details, including:

- first name
- last name
- email
- confirmed
- phone number

It also includes a **Reset password** button.

If your church uses **Planning Center** with Safe Pathways, your account fields may appear greyed out and unavailable to edit.

When this happens, Safe Pathways will display a message telling you to update your information in Planning Center instead.

### **Steps to review or update your account information**

#### 1. Open My Account

In the left-side menu, click My **Account**.

#### **2. Review your account details**

Check the information shown on the page, including your name, email address, confirmation status, and phone number.

#### **3. Update your information if the fields are editable**

If the account fields can be edited, update any information your church has asked you to change.

#### **4. Check whether Planning Center is connected**

If the fields are greyed out, read the on-screen message.

It will say:

**You can only change your account information on your church’s Planning Center.**

#### **5. Update your details in Planning Center if needed**

If your church uses Planning Center, make any needed account changes there instead of in Safe Pathways.

#### **6. Use Reset password if you need to change your password**

If you need to change your password, click **Reset password**.

This option should still be available even if Planning Center is connected.

### **What happens next**

After reviewing or updating your account information, return to **Home** to continue your assigned pathways, policy acknowledgements, and references if needed.

### **Troubleshooting**

> ***My email address is wrong***

- - Contact your church administrator for help.
    - You sign in with your username, which for most volunteers is their email address. If you're unsure of yours, use Forgot username? on the sign-in page.

> ***My Account fields are read-only***

- - This is expected if your church has connected **Planning Center**.
    - Update your account information in Planning Center instead of Safe Pathways.

> ***I do not see Reset password***

- - Refresh the page and check again.
    - If the button still does not appear, contact your church administrator or Safe Pathways support.

### **Notes**

- The **Account** page is used to review your basic identity details
- Some churches use **Planning Center** as the source of truth for volunteer account information
- When Planning Center is connected, account fields in Safe Pathways may be read-only
- Volunteers may still be able to use **Reset password** even when other fields cannot be edited
