We've noticed a number of members forgetting their password. While it might just be you're typing in the wrong password and get the situation sorted out after a couple of tries, sometimes you just plain forget your password.

I know that feeling, just quietly, since I have about 20 different email logins, along with my work logins and the other assorted logins you seem to accumulate just through life these days, so keeping them straight in your head can be a bit of a task!

However, the good news is that there is a way to reset your password in the event that you have completely forgotten what the password you used is.

So, what happens when you forget your password, and it isn't coming back?

When you login using the wrong password on the home page form (the one in the header), you will be sent to this page -



Clicking on the small text below the Login button "Forgot your password" will take you to this page -



- where you can input your username or email address and the forum will send you a link where you can reset your password. If you have chosen to use a secret question/answer, you do have the option of using that to reset your password without having to worry about an email coming from the forum.

Just a reminder - I see errors in the forum log for people who keep forgetting their passwords!
