# User Status

### Overview

The **User Status** menu in the MangoApps Admin Portal allows administrators to configure and manage the recommended user status settings. Users can set their own statuses with associated emojis, control when the status clears, and enable or disable "Do Not Disturb" mode.

### Configuring User Statuses

The User Status page provides options to create and manage custom status suggestion messages. Below are the configurable options:

#### **Status Message & Emoji**

Admins can define preset status messages with an associated emoji. By default, the deafault status messages include:

* 📅 **In a meeting**
* 🚗 **Traveling for work**
* 🏠 **Working from home**
* 🤒 **Out sick**
* 🌴 **Vacationing**

Users can enter their own custom status messages as needed.

***

#### **Clear After Duration**

Each status can be set to automatically clear after a specified time. Options include:

* **Don't Clear** – The status remains active until manually removed.
* **8 AM tomorrow** – The status automatically resets at 8 AM the next day.

***

#### **Do Not Disturb Mode**

Admins can enable or disable the "Do Not Disturb" setting for each status. When enabled, notifications are muted for the user while the status is active.

***

#### Enable Custom Status

Enable or disable the ability for users to set custom statuses. This status appears across web, messenger, and mobile apps. By default, custom statuses are **enabled**.

If **disabled**:

* Users will no longer see the text box to enter a custom status on any MangoApps platform.
* Only admin-defined status options will be available.
* Any previously set custom statuses will be cleared.
