New Feature: Reset Your Cligs Password

One of the most over-due feature requests is a way to reset your Cligs password on your own. A few users have been helping me test this new feature for a while now, and now it’s ready for general roll-out.

It works very simply: just visit cli.gs/user/resetpassword to start the process. If you’re already logged in, you’ll see that the system puts your username into the text box. If you are not logged in, you can enter either your username or email address. If you enter a valid username or email, a message is sent to the account’s email address with a special link that enables you to reset your password.

The password reset system may ask you to contact me for a manual reset. This could be due to a server error or most likely you do not have a valid email address associated with your account. If that’s the case, you’re going to have to contact me and prove to me your account is really yours and I’ll manually add your email address to the system, and then you can trigger a password reset.

The link to this new password reset page is found in the side bar if you’re logged out, or in your User Control Panel if you are logged in. Speaking of which, the Control Panel has been slightly updated to make it more organized.

So… rest your password! Questions/feedback at usual place.
