Welcome to the journey of implementing student self-registration, a transformative feature designed to enhance the efficiency of your school's administrative processes. As you embark on this path with a large student body, understanding and navigating potential login challenges is key to a seamless transition.

Step 1: Distributing Temporary Passwords

Upon initiation, each student receives a case-sensitive temporary password, either through email or the login cards feature. An example of such a password might etyje9ENuDUB

Step 2: First-Time Login

Encourage students to accurately use their username or email in combination with the temporary password for their initial login. This accuracy is crucial as it leads them to the important step of creating a new, personal password. We would suggest copy pasting the password into the login forms.

Step 3: Addressing Login Issues

Can Students Reset Their Passwords?

Yes. If a student encounters difficulties despite following the instructions carefully, the next step is to reset their password. This can be done easily by clicking the 'lost password' button on the login form. A new temporary password will be issued, which they can use to log in as previously described.

Step 4: When Resetting Doesn’t Work

If a student has attempted to reset their password and still faces login issues, it's time for an administrative intervention.

  1. Navigate to the student's profile within the 'students' section of your organization's administrative panel.

  2. Click the key icon next to their name. This action allows you to reset the student's password manually.

  3. Upon resetting, you will receive a downloadable login card that you can either hand to the student personally or send via email.

Step 5: Escalating to Support When Necessary

After diligently following through steps 1 to 4, including the administrative password reset and manual login attempt using the new temporary password, there might be rare instances where access issues persist. This final step is designed for such scenarios, ensuring that no student is left behind due to technical difficulties.

  1. Administrative Login Attempt: Before escalating the issue to live chat, it's crucial for the administrator to personally attempt logging in with the student's account using the newly reset temporary password (via the login card from step 4). This step is essential to verify the nature of the problem firsthand and ensure that all preceding steps have been executed correctly.

  2. Contacting Support: If the administrator is unable to log in despite following all the prescribed steps accurately, it's time to seek external assistance. Reach out to the support team with a detailed description of the steps taken and the issues encountered.

  3. Support Intervention: Upon receiving your request, our support team will promptly investigate the issue. With access to advanced diagnostic tools and a deeper understanding of the system's intricacies, the team is well-equipped to identify and resolve the underlying problem. Whether it's a technical glitch or a user-specific issue, our aim is to ensure a swift resolution, allowing the student to proceed with their registration without further delay.

This structured escalation process ensures that, in the face of persistent access challenges, professional support is readily available to guide you and your students towards a resolution. It underscores our commitment to providing a seamless and inclusive registration experience for every student.
