How does one change the Forum Password?

Post by chribonn » Tue Mar 10, 2020 11:24 am

I cannot find the place where I can change my forum password. Using both Chrome and Firefox I get to the profile page and after entering my current password I see no option to provide a new one.

Thanks

I gloomily came to the ironic conclusion that if you take a highly intelligent person and give them the best possible, elite education, then you will most likely wind up with an academic who is completely impervious to reality.

I am having a similar issue. I can log in and access the forum but when I enter my current password to confirm and make changes to my account it tells me its the wrong password. I found the above linked password manager portal and tried to log in but I get Error 5034 The browser session is invalid or has expired. Please try again. I tried the forgot password and put in my username and it gives the same error. Multiple browsers and clear caches later, I got the self service login to work using Incognito mode. Not sure why it hates me but hopefully this will save someone else some time.
