Title: password help please
Post by: Squash63 on March 28, 2009, 06:37:28
I'm sure this topic has been covered a thousand times, but I can't work out how to get a reminder/or change my password. 
I have recently changed my email address and wanted to change it on my profile but I need my password to do it.  I can't remember my password.  Help please!

Click on "profile"

Then on "Account Related Settings"

Enter a new password,verify it and then your current password  and its as easy as that.

Have you read and tried this

http://www.allotments4all.co.uk/smf/index.php?action=help;page=loginout#reminder

If that doesn't work then you'll have to PM Admin aka Dan explaining your problem.

Hello Betty,

If that link Flighty gave works for you, please could you report back? - thanks.

I once logged out then couldn't remember my password to get back in :-[ and had to PM Dan to give me a new one, which took a little while - I'd not come across Flighty's link then, so I'd like to bookmark it if it works - for the next time ::)

Thank you Flighty.  I still can't do it because in order to get a new password, I need to submit the form and get a reply by email  - but because my email address has changed, I can't receive the email!
I did email Dan 4 days ago but haven't had a reply yet.
Thanks for your help,

Hello Hyacinth,
the link is very helpful if you have not changed your email address.  I didn't want to change mine but there was a mixup at the call centre and my email address which I've had for about 10 years was deleted!

Praps re-register from your new addy as, f'rinstance "Squash64"?

Seems the quickest and simplest?

And we still know you're "Betty"  8)

Hope you can get it sorted.

Good thinking.  Mind you, I might start posting about how I grew a 500 pound pumpkin in a pot on my patio  ;)
