"Invalid current password" msg on change password page even though I've just logged in with that pw

I can log in to my account fine, but when I go to change password it says "Invalid current password" in red

It's definitely correct, I have just logged in with the same password, and I've tried multiple times.

Why is this basic functionality not working?

  • Hi wadson87, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    Could you try resetting the password directly without logging in by using this link?

     

    Let me know how it goes!
