Hello,

I have had an issue with a user and he is unable to reset his password due to some mail issues. I wanted to reset his password or email from admin section but I don’t find the option. Kindly let me know how to solve this issue.

One option is to ask him to create a new account, then I change the ownership of his topics to a different user but that’s a creepy method. We should have a better way to handle this right?

Regards,  
Rahul
