User settings

Users can specify a number of their own settings from the program. You may not have to change these settings, but it is useful to know about them. You can find Settings in the bottom left side of dRofus.

If your new password is not long enough you will see this message as it needs to be 8 characters or more.

If your new password is not complex enough you will see this message as it needs to have both a lowercase, uppercase and digit.

After successfully changing your password you will see this message returning you to the profile page again. You will also get an email saying your password has been successfully changed.

Language:

Sets the language of the interface. dRofus supports several languages that you can choose between. Each project in dRofus has one standard language, however you can choose to use another language than standard. Irrespective of the language you have selected as a user, as most projects require background text and data entered in the program to be in the same language. When you log in to a project which has a different language than that chosen by you as user, the program will ask if you want to change to the project language. We recommend that you accept this choice.
