Re: Changing your email address ( 02:06:10 FriFeb 8 2008 )

I have a user who is unable to change her e-mail address on her own because she no longer has access to her old e-mail account. There's a pretty good chance I'll have more of these coming, too, since we're looking to upgrade - and an upgrade to v2 sends an e-mail to all users asking for permission to upgrade their account. Details of this particular user's information is whispered below, and I'll pop back in as more come to light.



Thanks in advance!

Hi Rick, can you give me the info on this please? Whisper the old email and the new one and I will update it for you manually in the database. It does work but perhaps it gets blocked from some domains, we can't help that. If you whisper the info I will get it done for you, others can post and ask for themselves and I will do the same for them. :smile:

Hello,

I have a member who has lost both their password and changed their e-mail address and they would like to have access to their old posts. Is their a way to rediscover or change a members password and assign them a new email address in order to allow them access to their past posts?

I imagine verifying their identity is the big challenge here.

Thank you for your help.

Whisper the old password. One that they this it could have been, if they absolutely don't remember, they can whisper the username's email and that's it, if they can't come up with both things they are pretty much out of luck. I wish there was more I could do, but my hands are tied.

Hello,

Re: Your last post to me concerning the member in my group who lost their password and changed their email address but who now needs access to their account to delete old posts Re: Changing your email address ( 08:47:20 Sun Sep 28 2008 )

The root of their problem is that they fear their user name is no longer anonymous. Well, I was thinking the member's need for privacy could be solved by replacing their original user name with a new one. From the perspective of preserving the archives, this is preferable to delating all their old posts.

I'm not sure if this is possible. FAQ didn't seem to cover it anyway. Assuming the member can prove their identity, is it possible to assign them a new user name and have it become the sole public identifier on all of their old posts?

Thank you as always.

Unfortunately we can't rename the old name, it'd involve manually editing every one of their old posts, so it won't be possible. They can make a new username, but there's not any way to rename the old account. I wish there was John, but it's just too complicated a thing to accomplish in our network at this time.
