IMPORTANT NOTE:

  • It is important you remove the old credential design before attempting to add a new one, or you will just end up editing the existing design. Editing an existing design will change the appearance of all credentials using it, not just the credentials in the group you are editing.

3. Choose the credential design you now wish to use for the group.
4. This will take you back to the group settings, click Save

IMPORTANT NOTE:

  • If there is a pre-existing design you want to use for this group, but also need to make a few changes, you must copy the credential design. If you do not copy the design, the changes will be applied to all credentials that use it, not just the credentials in the group you are editing.
