    Updated Jul 30, 2024

      How to Change Your WordPress Password

      While it may be a pain to juggle the ever increasing need for multiple passwords online, it is a great practice to update your login information on occasion to keep your Dashboard secure.  Resetting your user's Password is a piece of cake though, so you can quickly get in, reset the password, and get back to other time consuming ventures!

      1. Login to your site's WordPress Dashboard.

      2. Scroll down the Dashboard until you reach the 'Users' section.  From there, select the 'All Users' option from the sub-menu.
