General Settings

Configure language, timezone, email, and profile preferences for your TotalApp account.

Language & Locale

TotalApp ships with full support for English and Turkish. Switching the language updates every label, button, placeholder, and status badge across the entire application instantly — no reload required.

Option	Description
Language	Select English or Türkçe. The UI language changes immediately.
Timezone	Sets the timezone used for timestamps on reports, activity logs, and scheduled events.

Tip

Language is stored per-browser session. Each user on a shared machine can keep their own language preference without affecting others.

Email Settings

The email settings control how TotalApp sends outbound mail — for workflow alerts, notification digests, and any module that triggers email delivery.

Field	Description
SMTP Host	The hostname of your mail server (e.g. `smtp.gmail.com`).
SMTP Port	Typically 587 (STARTTLS) or 465 (SSL). Match the port your provider requires.
Username	The email address or account used to authenticate with the SMTP server.
Password	App password or OAuth token for the SMTP account. Stored server-side, never sent to the browser.
From Address	The sender address shown to recipients. Must be authorised by your SMTP provider.
From Name	Display name shown in the email client alongside the From address.

Sending a Test Email

After entering your SMTP credentials, use the Send Test Email button to verify the configuration. A test message is sent to the From Address. If delivery fails, the error is shown inline — check your credentials and port settings.

Gmail / Google Workspace

Google requires an App Password (not your account password) when 2-Step Verification is enabled. Generate one at myaccount.google.com → Security → App Passwords.

My Tests (Quiz Settings)

Controls the default behaviour of the Quiz Engine when a user starts a new test session.

Option	Description
Default question count	How many questions are drawn per session when no explicit count is set.
Shuffle questions	Randomise question order every session so repeated runs feel fresh.
Show explanations	Display the explanation text after each answer is submitted.
Pass threshold	Minimum percentage score required to mark a session as Passed.

FAQ

Do language changes affect other users on the same server?

No. The language setting is stored in the browser and only affects the current session. Other users retain their own language preference.

Where are SMTP credentials stored?

Credentials are written to the server's configuration file and never transmitted back to the browser after saving. They are used exclusively for outbound mail delivery.

Can I use a custom SMTP relay instead of Gmail or Outlook?

Yes — any SMTP-compatible relay works. Fill in the Host, Port, Username, and Password fields with the values provided by your relay service.
