    I have my PC set up to automatically log me in when I click on www.petoftheday.com.

    No idea what my user name and password are, I set all that up when I first joined and have never used it since. Oh wait, my user name is Freedom.

    I can take a guess about my password.

    Is there any way I can find out before the transition?

    Thanks!

    You can reset your password right now, while you are logged in, and this time, write it down and keep it in a safe place!

    I recommend that anyone not sure of their password do this right away, just in case.

    1. Go under your User CP
    2. The second item down in the lefthand column is Edit Email and Password
    3. Just look at the email address right now, make sure it is a correct address, and note (if you have more than one email address that you use) which address it is.

    4. Go to the Pet Talk home page, take a deep breath, and Log Out.

    5. Then type your username in the username box to log back in, and if you have a guess at your password, type that in and log in. If your guess works write it down! If your guess doesn't work, or if you just leave "password" blank, a box will come up that says "You have entered an invalid username or password. Please press the back button, enter the correct details and try again. Don't forget that the password is case sensitive. Forgotten your password? Click here!"

    6. Click there. Enter your account's email address (which you made a note of in Step 3) and the software will automatically email you a new password.

    7. Check your email. If you don't get that email right away, check your spam or junk folder, it may have gone there. That email will contain your new password.

    8. Log in with your new password. You can either then go change your password to something more memorable, using that User CP, or keep the one the system assigned you as your ne password, that is up to you. Whatever the case, write it down, and put that piece of paper where you will be able to find it, just in case.

    Does that make sense?

    I recall from earlier versions, we could see the date of a person's last post in their profile. Hoping we can do that with the new version.

    PT was down for about 10 MIN. Was that a part of this?

    No, that was unrelated.

       The server was down for at least 15 minutes because it was about 40 times busier than usual. I am not sure why.

       Perhaps the server we be moving this weekend. If not it will be next weekend.
