• Default Project—If you are a member of more than one Project, change the default Project that is displayed when logging in to FootPrints.  To change the default Project, choose from the drop-down box.
• Your Local Time Zone—By default, FootPrints displays all dates and times in the time zone where the FootPrints server resides.  If you select a time zone from the drop-down list, all dates and times are displayed adjusted to be accurate for that time zone (does not affect how data is stored).
• Date Format—This option determines how dates are represented throughout FootPrints. The options are:
• American—MM/DD/YYYY
• European—DD/MM/YYYY
• ISO—YYYY/MM/DD
• Revert to the system default—The default format set by the System Administrator is used.
• Preferred Language—If the current FootPrints installation supports multiple languages, choose a language for display.
• U.S. Government Section 508 Compliance/Visually Impaired Enhancement—This feature enables FootPrints to be better accessed by visually impaired users.  If  enabled, FootPrints is optimized to be used with the "JAWS" browser and other similar browsers.  If you enable or disable this feature, you must refresh the browser.
• Delete Cookie—If you elected to have FootPrints remember your ID and password (on the Login page), an option to delete the login cookie appears here.  Check the box to delete the cookie.  Deleting the cookie means that you must enter your user name and password every time you log in to FootPrints.

Note

If you just changed your password, your old password is still active until after you apply the changes.  Consequently, even though you changed your password on the My Preferences page, you must enter the old password to apply the changes.  After successfully changing your preferences, your new password becomes active.
