# District Settings

> Configure your district name, branding, language, and dashboard layout.

District Settings is where you control the core configuration of your Credentials Portal — what it's called, how it looks, what languages it supports, and what sections appear on the dashboard.

## Access Settings

Click **Settings** in the main navigation. You need the **Settings** permission on your role to access this area.

## General settings

### District name

Your district name appears in emails, invitations, and at the top of the app. To change it, edit the **District Name** field and click **Save**.

### Accent color

The accent color customizes the visual theme for everyone in your district. Click the color swatch to open the color picker and select a new color.

To add a language:

1. Click **+ Add Language**
2. Select from the 90+ available languages
3. Click **Save**

## District contacts

You can add contact links to your district — for example, a link to a district administrator's profile. These appear in the app as reference information for members.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Settings → Contacts">
    Navigate to the **Contacts** section in Settings.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a contact">
    Click **+ Add Contact**, enter a label (e.g., "District Admin"), and select the person from your People directory.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Click **Save**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Tags

Tags are short labels you can apply to people for filtering and organization — for example "Locally Licensed" or "Spring 2026".

To manage tags, go to **Settings → Tags**:

* Click **+ Add Tag** to create a new tag
* Click an existing tag to rename it
* Click the delete icon to remove it

Tags you create here can then be assigned to people from their profile.
