Password reset

Postby newfie » Fri Jun 06, 2014 2:34 pm

Could you change the site so that only an email address is required for a password reset of an existing account?
I forgot my username and it appears there is no way to reset the password without knowing both username and password. I'd not received an email from the site before so couldn't search my emails to find my username. I eventually found my username by searching through lots of the postings here.

Hi Newfie

Firstly thanks for the suggestion, always welcome.
For security reasons we require both the username and email address your account is registered to in order to reset the password. It is unusual for a user not to know their username, but if anyone has trouble logging in they can contact me and I will manually reset the password for them. The contact page is here http://www.1066online.com/forms/contact_us/contact_form.html
