Your account

Your picture, name, contact details, and how Ghostlight reaches you. To get there, click your picture or initials in the top corner, then Account.

Add a profile picture

  1. On the Profile tab, under Profile picture, choose a picture, or click Take photo to use your camera. JPEG, PNG or WebP, up to 5 MB.
  2. Drag to position it, and use Zoom to resize it.
  3. Click Use picture.

Your name, pronouns and phone

  1. Under Name and pronouns, fill in your name and, if you like, your pronouns. Click Save.
  2. Under Phone, enter your number and click Save. Only your theater’s owners, admins and staff, and anyone with Can edit on a show you’re on, can see it.

Don't see Phone or Notifications?

They appear once you belong to a theater. See Joining your theater.

Change the email you sign in with

  1. Under Change email, enter the new address and click Update email.
  2. Ghostlight emails both your old and new address. Click the link in both emails to finish.

Add another email address

  1. Under Other email addresses, type it in Add another address and click Send confirmation.
  2. Open that inbox and click the link in the same browser you’re using now.
  3. On the page that opens, click Confirm this address.
  4. Under Where we send your Ghostlight email, pick which address gets your mail.

Why add another address?

Invitations and audition bookings sent to any of your confirmed addresses find their way to this account. You still sign in with your sign-in address, and sign-in emails always go there.

To sign in with Google instead, click Connect Google in the same section. Everything in your account stays.

To stop using an address, click Remove next to it, then Remove address.

Choose your notifications

  1. Open the Notifications tab.
  2. Each kind of update has three switches: In-app (the bell), Email and Push (an alert on your phone or computer). Turn on the ones you want. A dash means that kind isn’t sent that way.
  3. For push alerts, next to Push notifications on this device, click Turn on and allow it when your browser asks.

No Turn on button?

If it says Blocked in your browser settings, you said no to notifications earlier. Allow notifications for ghostlighthq.com in your browser’s site settings, then reload the page.

No push line at all? This browser can’t do push alerts. On an iPhone, use the Home Screen app.

Push is turned on one device at a time. Do it again on each phone and computer you use. On an iPhone it only works from the Home Screen app: see the iPhone guide.

Light or dark

On the Preferences tab, under Appearance, pick System, Light or Dark. System follows your device.
