# Your personal settings for a space

In Taska, you can give a team your own name and color in the “Personal settings” window. Only you see them, and the team looks the same as before to everyone else.

Who can do this

Members and guests of a team space, and people invited to a single project or section. The owner and admins don't see this window: they change the team's name and color for everyone in the “Space settings” window.

## How to set your own name and color

1. Click the team's name in the sidebar.
2. On the page that opens, click “⋮” in the top right corner and choose “Personal settings”.
3. On the “General” tab, in the “Title” field, enter the name you want to see for the team.
4. In the “Color” block, pick a color. With “No color”, the team uses the color of your theme.
5. Click “Save”.

“Saved” appears next to the button for a couple of seconds, and the window stays open. The new name shows up right away in the sidebar and on the team page. The color applies to the team's section in the sidebar and to its settings windows. The rest of Taska keeps your theme color.

How many colors the palette offers depends on your personal plan: 5 colors on Free, all 22 on Pro.

The sliders icon to the right of the team's name in the sidebar also opens the window. It appears when you hover over the name. On your phone, use the same “⋮” on the team page.

## How to restore the original name and color

1. Open “Personal settings” as described above.
2. Under the “Title” field, next to “Original name and color”, click the label with the team's name. The form gets back the name and color the owner set.
3. Click “Save”.

If you clear the “Title” field and save, the original name comes back as well.

## Other tabs in the window

- “Notifications”. Your notification settings for this space, which your teammates don't see. See “[Notification settings: in-app feed, push notifications and spaces](https://taska.be/en/help/491-notification-settings-in-app-feed-push-notifications-and-spaces)” for details.
- “API”. Your API keys for this space. Members have this tab, guests don't.

If the team's color disappeared for you

Until you pick your own color, the window opens with “No color” selected, even if the team has a color. If you save it like that, the team takes on your theme color. To get the team's color back, click the label with the original name and click “Save” again.

If you're the owner or an admin

Your changes are visible to everyone. On the team page, click “⋮” in the top right corner and choose “Space settings”. On the “General” tab, change the “Title” and “Color”, then click “Save”.
