> There are three ways to do this.
> 
> 1. Select your Profile Photo on the top-right hand corner of the forum and select the person icon, and then select ⚙ Preferences 
> 2. Enter the following in the URL bar:  
> `https://forum.domain/my/preferences/account`  
> For example, on Meta it would be:

> 3. Use the keyboard shortcut: G followed by P, then select ⚙ Preferences
