How to Change Your Password on WordPress.org

How to Change Your Password on WordPress.org

So..you have an account for the support forums, themes, or plugins. You use it every once and awhile to sign in, but wish you could simply change your password to something you can remember after having to reset it. After having a number of friends and clients not able to find the profile link – I thought I would create this post in hopes to help people in the future.

  1. Step 1: Log into WordPress.org.
  2. Step 2: Click on the Forums tab.
  3. Step 3: To the right of the “Forums” header – there will be a small “welcome text” (example: Welcome, jenz! View your profile (Log Out)). Click on the “View your profile” text.
  4. Step 4:Near the bottom of the page there is an option to reset your password. Set it to something you can remember.

That’s it. I hope that helps!

    Wow! Thanks a ton. This should really be fixed. It seems like there are 500 places to log in, but you have to hit the bullseye to change your password.

    Cheers!
