How Do I Change My Password?

Post by PixelCranium »

I lost my password for my account, so I went through the steps to get a new one. But now I'm stuck with the computer-generated, numbers-and-letters sort of thing. I can't figure out how to change my password back to something I can remember though. The email said I can do it from my profile, but does that mean this profile?
memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=129561
If it does, I have no idea how to do it.

I'd really appreciate any help someone could offer!
Thanks!!

Click the notification thing like you were going to look at a new message. When it pops up, you'll see a thing that says 'NEW! Settings' in the top right corner of the popup. Click that, and it'll bring you to a control panel. Once there, go to the tab that says profile. After that, click the second tab, I think it says 'Edit Account Settings'. It'll bring you to the place to change you're password.

It might be best to change your password then, to something that you can remember. :mrgreen:
Admin cannot see our passwords, so if you can't remember it and you log out...

However, admin can send a password reset, so no matter how you look at it, you will need to be able to access your email (not HWO mail) to make such changes.

If you have no access to your email, then you'll want to change your email first before changing your password. Same area, if I'm not mistaken, that changing the password is in.

Remember, only one email per account.
