Workspace settings and theme

Workspace settings is where you name your workspace, set its public handle, choose your measurement units, and pick a theme. These settings belong to the whole workspace, not to you personally — your own profile lives on the Account page instead.

Open it from Settings in the Settings group of the left-hand navigation. The page opens on Workspace settings with your workspace's name shown beneath the heading.

Changing these settings needs the workspace-settings permission (Owner or Admin). If you don't have it, the fields are shown read-only with the note You have read-only access to workspace settings. An admin can change these. — ask a workspace admin to make the change.

Edit your workspace details

1. In the navigation, choose Settings.
2. Under Workspace details, update any of:
   • Workspace name — the name shown across Brewstiller (for example, Garage Brewery). It can't be empty.
   • Public handle — your public Story Page address. Use 1–63 characters: lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens (no leading hyphen). See the caution below before changing a handle that's already in use.
   • Home state / region — used for state-aware compliance defaults (for example, UT). Leave it blank to clear it.
   • Measurement units — choose US customary (lb, °F, gal) or Metric (kg, °C, L). Quantities shown around Brewstiller — your lot amounts, recipe ingredient amounts, and batch input/output volumes — are displayed in the system you pick here, converting from however a value was originally entered. A value already in your chosen system is shown exactly as it was entered (never re-rounded). Regulatory figures such as proof and proof gallons always stay in their required units, whichever system you choose.
3. Choose Save changes. A confirmation appears and the page reloads the saved values.

If someone else changed these settings while you had the page open, saving shows These settings changed elsewhere. and reloads the latest values — review them and save again.

Change your public handle

Your public handle is the address people use to reach your published story pages, so changing it is treated with care: the old handle is retired permanently — it redirects to the new one and can never be reused.

1. Under Workspace details, edit the Public handle field to the new handle.
2. Choose Save changes. Because the handle changed, Brewstiller shows a confirmation explaining that your old address will permanently redirect and can't be reused.
3. Choose Confirm handle change to apply it, or Cancel to keep the current handle.

On success you'll see Workspace handle changed. with a note that your previous address now redirects to the new one. If the handle you chose is already taken — including a handle that was retired earlier — Brewstiller shows That handle is already in use. and nothing changes; pick a different one.

Choose a theme

The theme sets the accent colors used across your workspace.

1. In the navigation, choose Settings.
2. Under Theme, choose a theme from the picker. The accents update immediately as a preview so you can see the change before committing to it.
3. Choose Save changes to keep the selected theme. If you leave the page without saving, the preview reverts to your saved theme.

If the theme options can't be loaded, the picker is shown read-only with a note explaining the theme catalog is unavailable; reload the page to try again.
