I’ve ran setup about a year ago, but how would I go about changing it for admin. Would I rerun `discourse-setup` and change it in user preferences or how is this going to work?

> Do you mean the one your enter when you ran discourse-setup? If so, you’ll run it again. If you mean one you enter in the ux in your browser you can change it and it’ll send you an email to make sure it’s you. If you’re hosted, then you might contact email team, as your address is on systems outside of your discourse instance.

Which would I want to run first? UX change or discourse setup change?
