lost wiki password
« on: January 28, 2015, 12:25:09 AM »
Obviously my browser knows my password since I'm posting here, but I can't figure out how to navigate to a page to change it.   I can find my profile, but it asks me for my password to change my password.   I can even read my secret question/answer!   

So how do you trigger the lost password recovery mode?  Searching tells me how to recover an SMEserver password by interrupting the boot process.  Good to know, but ignores the WIKI search term!

Very frustrating

I assume you mean Forums.

The secret is to Logout first (at top)
Then scroll to bottom of screen & select option to retrieve password (Forgot your password)
Then enter existing registered username or email address
