segler999 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Why is it so difficult to change my password here? It directs me over to geocaching.com, where I can successfully change and password and login again. However, when I come back here to Groundspeak.com, my new password is not accepted. Can you please fix this already!! Thanks segler999 Link to comment

+Bergie Bunch Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 (edited) Critical data on here I am missing, or are you afraid someone might log in and add smileys to you stats? Oh wait, they might log in and post about things you don't want people to know! Wait, I saw your stats, they are INVISIBLE!! Now I get it, your one of the FANTASTIC FOUR! Of is this a sock puppet account? Cache as one, post as another? Edited October 16, 2009 by Bergie Bunch Link to comment
segler999 Posted October 16, 2009 Author Share Posted October 16, 2009 OK, let's try this again. All I want to do is change my login password for this forum. How hard can this be? When I start this, it takes me out to geocaching.com. I have to login there, and change the password there. It works there. I can re-login with the new password there. No problem. Then I come back here and try to login again with the new password. No go. It's been like this for at least 3 years that I know of. Fix it !! Link to comment
+murphyrulez Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Yeah, it doesn't seem to work. There's a note on the geocaching.com page that says to click on the 'Register' link if your password doesn't update, but the register link doesn't seem to take me anywhere, it redirects me to the front page... Odd... Link to comment
segler999 Posted October 16, 2009 Author Share Posted October 16, 2009 Exactly right. It does not work. I have clicked through all the instructions between Groundspeak.com and geocaching.com to update my password on both sites. Geocaching.com did update my password. Groundspeak.com requires me to login with my old password. The new password is not being transferred. Link to comment
Motorcycle_Mama Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Not a Getting Started issue. Moving to the Geocaching.com website forum. Link to comment
Elias Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 There appears to be an issue with the integration between Geocaching.com and the forums. Our developers are looking into it. Elias Link to comment
+niraD Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Did you come back here directly? Or did you use the FORUMS link at Geocaching.com ? Link to comment
Elias Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 This has been fixed. I forgot to deploy a particular component on our new servers which prevented Geocaching.com from updating the forums database. Elias Link to comment
