Note: If you check this box, customers will only be allowed to enter their birthdate once. After they save their birthday, they cannot change it later from their profile. This helps to prevent accuracy and fraud.

Example: A customer signs up and enters their birthday as "January 1, 2000." After submitting, the birthday field becomes locked and cannot be edited unless you manually update it from the backend.

5.4 To manage which gender options are available for customers, you can go to the gender options. Here, you will see toggles for different gender identities. You can turn on or off each gender option depending on what you want to display on the customer profile page.

6. Edit Social Account Settings

If you want to customize which social media accounts customers can connect to their profiles, navigate to social account settings to manage the available social login options (like Google, Facebook, or LINE)

7. Customize the content & languages 

The Content & Languages section allows you to customize and manage the text and language options that appear on the customer registration page and related widgets. You can adjust how instructions, field names, and messages are displayed to customers in different languages.
