This page covers how to access Cohort-OS for the first time, how to sign in on return visits, and how to manage your profile and security settings.
|
|
|
|
## First-Time Setup
|
|
|
|
When an admin adds you to the team, you receive an invite email with a setup link. That link takes you to the **Set Your Password** page, where you choose a password (minimum 6 characters) and confirm it. Submitting the form sets your password and logs you in automatically -- you land on your **My Reviews** dashboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
:::warning
|
|
Setup links expire. If your link no longer works, ask your admin to resend the invite, or use the forgot-password flow described below.
|
|

|
|
## Signing In
|
|
|
|
Go to the login page and enter your email and password, then click **Sign in**. After a successful login you are redirected to your **My Reviews** dashboard.
|
|
|
|
If you enter incorrect credentials, an error message appears at the top of the form.
|
|
|
|
## Forgot Password
|
|
|
|
If you cannot remember your password:
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Click **Forgot your password?** on the login page.
|
|
2. Enter your email address and click **Send Reset Link**.
|
|
3. Check your inbox for a reset email. Click the link in the email.
|
|
4. On the **Set Password** page, enter and confirm your new password (minimum 6 characters), then click **Reset Password**.
|
|
5. You are logged in automatically and redirected to your dashboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
The reset confirmation always says a link was sent, even if no account exists with that email. This is intentional -- it prevents revealing which email addresses have accounts.

## Your Profile
|
|
|
|
Open your profile by clicking your name (with your ghostie avatar) in the top-right corner of the navigation bar, or by navigating directly to **Settings**.
|
|
|
|
### Profile Section
|
|
|
|
The **Profile** section shows your current information in a compact list:
|
|
|
|
* **Avatar** -- Your ghostie. Click **\[CHANGE\]** to open the avatar picker (see below).
|
|
* **Name** -- Click **\[EDIT\]** to update inline. Press Enter or click **\[SAVE\]** to confirm.
|
|
* **Email** -- Click **\[EDIT\]** to update inline. Works the same as name.
|
|
* **Role** -- Read-only. Displays your current role (e.g., reviewer, orgadmin).
|
|
* **Organization** -- Read-only. Shows your active organization.
|
|
* **Member Since** -- Read-only. The month and year your account was created.
|
|
|
|
### Choosing a Ghostie Avatar
|
|
|
|
Click **\[CHANGE\]** next to your avatar to open the ghostie picker. You can select from six expressions -- Sweet, Mild, Exasperated, WTF, Disbelieving, and Double Take -- and pick a color from six presets or use the custom color picker. A live preview updates as you make selections. Click **\[SAVE\]** to apply your new avatar, or **\[CANCEL\]** to discard changes.
|
|
|
|
### Changing Your Password
|
|
|
|
The **Security** section lets you change your password. If you already have a password set, enter your current password first, then your new password and confirmation. If you do not have a password set yet (e.g., you were added to the system before password setup was available), you can set one directly without entering a current password. Passwords must be at least 6 characters.
|
|
|
|
### Display Settings
|
|
|
|
The **Display** section lets you switch between **Light**, **Dark**, and **System** themes.
