Change your passwords (dashboard, hosting, email and more)

Each thing has its own password. Here's where to change each one.

Your Fodenflow account, your hosting and each mailbox have different passwords. That way, if one leaks, the others stay safe.

  • Your Fodenflow dashboard: in My profile → Change password. We ask for your current password and the new one twice.
  • The hosting account: in your hosting's Overview → Account password → Change password. It's used for the advanced panel, the main FTP account and the main MySQL user.
  • A mailbox: in your hosting's Email tab, the Password button for that mailbox.
  • An extra FTP account: in the FTP tab, that account's Password button.
  • A database user: in the Databases tab, Change password.
  • The WordPress admin: from the WordPress dashboard, under Users → your profile.

After changing the password of a mailbox, the hosting account or a database, update it wherever you use it: your email apps, your FTP app or your site's configuration (for example wp-config.php).

Use long, different passwords for each thing. A password manager saves you from having to remember them.
