    Hello Paddy138,

    While it is possible to recover your password using either a username or email address you can only log into Boards using your username. Very recent cases of your exact problem have been caused by users trying to log in to Boards.ie using their email addresses. Can you confirm both you and your other half are trying to log in using usernames?

    I have exactly this problem. It makes this site basically unusable for me.

    I go to log in, It says wrong password. I password reset - paste in the exact same password.
    A few minutes later, guess what happens. I have never come across this issue before

    Can I just double check that you're attempting to login with your username rather than your e-mail address?

    So you select reset password and then you copy the password sent in the following e-mail, is that right? You should then change your password from your User CP to make it something memorable and secure.

    Your web browser may be defaulting back to an original password that you have reset away from; you should get a prompt when you enter a different password.

    It's just fixed itself, it seems I'm not experiencing that issue today.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
