rdunajewski Posted May 5, 2021 Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 After migrating the forum software to a new version, it came to my attention that some users had different display names (usernames) on their forum account versus their myGMRS account. At some point in the past, there was a misconfiguration on the server that allowed a small number of people to change their forum display name, when it should be tied to your myGMRS account only. I identified all the users that fell into this case, and renamed your display name to match your myGMRS username. If you're having a hard time logging into the forums, please use your actual myGMRS username and password and not what you've been using (especially if you're using a password manager to remember your credentials). Hopefully this smooths out the rest of the issues people had with logging in and linking their myGMRS account with a forum account. mbrun, wayoverthere, AdmiralCochrane and 3 others 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WREK883 Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 I'm afraid I've been having issues all morning. When logging in to mygmrs.com, it kept telling me that my password was expired. I finally seem too have that sorted out. But now, here on the forum, I still can't log in using my display name. I CAN log in using my email. However, my display name is incorrect. It's using my old GMRS call that expired years ago (WQAR285), not my current call that I use as my display name (WREK883). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdunajewski Posted May 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Looks like you have two accounts under the same email, so when it joined the accounts it grabbed the oldest account first. I just deleted your old account and merged your forum account under the new one. It should all be unified now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdunajewski Posted May 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 Your myGMRS.com account needs to have its password changed. Please go here and enter your username or email address to have the password reset link emailed to you: https://mygmrs.com/password The email may go to your spam folder, so please check there.

AdmiralCochrane Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 It says there is no account for my email, when I put in my screen name it claims to send a password reset email but I never get one. I monitor my spam folder regularly, nope, not there either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdunajewski Posted May 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 Looks like your email address had a typo in it. I fixed that, and resent the reset password email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phottomatt Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Hello, new to the forum, I signed up at the forum first, do I need to make a second account for the website? The website won't take my forum login info. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
