Hi All,

I was running once again impex to try it with phpBB. I had a previous problem (importing avatars lost my admin password...) and I reinstalled the board but now I have modified the default style and wished to not make again these changes.

Is there a way to recover my password?
I did not found a lost password form :confused: and there is no indication where to find it when I'm using the login (top right)?

Hi All,

I found the forgotten password link and tried it and the board do not recognize the entered email adress!

Is there an issue?

Unfortunately not!
I made a new install and worked a bit.:confused:

And I retried the import without uploading the avatars which blocked the job.

Follow the howto. If you have changes, back up your database first, and do not associate the admin user.

I think the problem was I associated the admin user then... had to do a reinstall... now it appears to be working fine!
