# Public Profiles for Staff Who Teach

When a staff member teaches classes, Naayya can show a **Complete your public profile** banner in the teaching workspace.

This helps keep the public class schedule accurate for students.

## When the banner appears

The banner appears in the teaching workspace when one or more required public profile fields are empty.

The banner checks these required fields:

- **Bio**
- **Profile photo**
- **Primary style**

Instagram is optional. It improves the profile, but it does not keep the banner open.

## How the banner behaves

- The progress bar reflects the required fields only
- The banner disappears automatically as soon as all required fields are filled
- If the staff member dismisses it manually, Naayya hides it for **7 days** before showing it again

## Where staff complete the profile

Staff complete this from the teaching workspace:

1. In the teaching workspace, click **Complete profile** in the banner
2. Add or update the required fields
3. Save the profile

The banner is only a reminder. The actual editing happens on the profile page.

## What studio operators should do

Studio owners and managers do not need to fill this out on behalf of the staff member in most cases.

What they should do instead:

- Make sure the person has the correct teaching access
- Confirm they can sign in with the invited email
- Ask them to finish their public profile after they accept
- Use the **Teaching Team** page (**Admin > Teachers**) if the teaching profile itself needs operational cleanup

## If someone can teach but still sees the banner

That usually means the account setup worked, but one or more required public-facing fields are still missing.

Check the profile for:

- Missing or empty bio
- Missing photo
- Missing primary style

Once those are saved, the banner should disappear automatically.
