**Friends control**: Choose whether other users may add you to their friends list. If you are added to a friends list, the owner of that list is added to your list. When you remove someone from your friends list you are also removed from their list.

20.

**HTML editor**: An HTML editor is available for use on some sections of the site. This is known as a 'What you see is what you get' (WYSIWYG) editor. This allows you to apply formatting to your text like in a word processor. If the editor is turned off you can only enter plain text. If you do not have this option, the site admin may have disabled it.

**Email**: Use this setting to stop Mahara from sending you emails. It is advised that you generally regulate what is sent via email and what is not in the :ref:`notifications <notifications>`.

22.

**Message from other users**: Use this setting to choose who you wish to receive messages from. Use the :ref:`notifications <notifications>` area to decide how you will receive these messages. **Note**: These restrictions will not apply to users with the 'administrator' or 'staff'.

23.

**Language**: If your Mahara instance is offered in multiple languages, you can choose in which one you want to navigate the site. The menu items and the contextual help appear in the language you have chosen. However, the content does not.

24.

**Show controls to add and remove columns when editing a page**: You can add the *Add* and *Remove* buttons in the page editor to quickly change the number of columns in a portfolio page, see :ref:`edit layout <edit_layout>`.

25.

**Enable multiple journals**: By default, you have one journal. If you would like to keep more than one journal, choose this option.
