Change a teacher's public name and photo
The name and photo customers see for a teacher - in your schedule, on booking pages, in messages, and in calendar feeds - come from that person's profile under Planning. This is separate from their login and account details, so changing it here is safe and does not rename their account.
Available to owner, admin, and manager. This menu is labelled with your studio's staff term, so it may read Teachers, Coaches, Operators, or whatever you have set.
Open the profile
1. Go to Planning -> Teachers and click the person.
2. Open the Profile tab.
3. You are now on the Public profile card.
Set the public name
1. In Public name, type the name customers should see, for example Coach Maya.
2. Click Save public name.
This name is shown to customers in schedules, messages, and calendar feeds. If you leave it empty, customers see the name on the person's own account instead.
Change the photo
1. Click the photo tile at the top of the Public profile card.
2. Choose an image - PNG, JPG, or WebP. It uploads and saves straight away.
Add a public description
Use the Description field for a short bio. It is shown to customers on booking pages and in your studio app.
Good to know
The public name and photo are separate from the person's account name and login. Editing them does not rename their account or notify them.
If someone reports that the wrong name shows publicly for a teacher, set the Public name here - that is what customers see.
You cannot edit these for an archived team member. Reactivate them first.
