How do I reset my password?

Post by friarygirl » Mon Oct 31, 2011 4:49 am

I got locked out of bus recently and Mia was kind enough to give me an emergency password so I could get back here.

But I would like either my old password back, or to instate a more secure one than the emergency one I have now. I looked on User Control Panel and can't find anywhere to reset passwords - so how do I do it?

UCP --> Profile --> Edit account settings.

This worked for me when I edited my BUS email contact so I guess that it will for you as well in changing your password :) .

Thank you. Sadly it happened when I wasn't feeling too steady, so I wasn't in a place to reset. Now I will. Thanks Kiwi.
