Being new to this, I have two questions:

Our church just started our own forum and I’m learning as I go here.

First issue: One user registered twice and wants to delete one account. When I clicked on edit on their account, I got a 404 user/data page not found error, so I can’t delete it

Second issue: Is there a plugin or another moethod for a user to change passwords when they log in with the weird password they automatically get?

I really appreciate any advice

2. You might want to allow the user to just pick their own password when they create the account:

Otherwise, they can just log in, go to their profile, click edit, then change the password. No plugin required; it’s built in.

1. Are you having any other issues with the forum? It almost sounds like the URL permalinks are not working. Can you post a link to your forum? If not, why worry about the duplicate account? Just never use it and no one will ever know.

Thank you. I fixed the edit problem and will install the password plug-in. Appreciate the help
