    Password

    I have forgotten my password. I don't need it for the PC I am using right now because it is set up to stay "signed in." On my iPad I can't log on and there seems to be no provision for "forgot password.' Can I get my password from the administrator or a moderator?

    If you are signed in on a machine, you should be able to update/change passwords and then save it again.

      I was thinking you have to know your current password to do that. edit..After checking it does seem you have to enter your current password to edit it.

        It's kind of geeky but if you have the log in active on your PC what you do is log out, then click on your user name and it should auto fill, then click on the password box and it should also auto fill but don't hit enter to log in. What you do now is highlight the asterisks so they are highlighted, then right click on the highlighted area and select "inspect element from the drop down menu. You will see a horizontal window open at the bottom of the screen with a line highlighted in blue. At the end of this line is the word password in quotes, double click there and change password to text and hit enter. Your password should now be displayed. You'll now to have repeat the procedure and change text back to password to hide your password again.

            Not really a copy and paste but you can probably do that once you can see the password. It's more that you are revealing what's under asterisk. I use it lot's on client machines where they've forgotten passwords.

              I was thinking, copy & paste the hidden password (autosave) and paste it to Current​ password in change password process. But your suggestion allows one to keep forgotten password.
