By far, the most popular request our support team gets is: \u201cI need help with my password.\u201d<\/p>\n

We get it. There are a lot of services out there and they all require passwords. It\u2019s easy to lose track — especially if it\u2019s not something you are using every day. So to help you out, here\u2019s a quick cheat sheet for setting up and retrieving passwords:<\/p>\n

Setting up a password<\/strong><\/h2>\n

By now you should know better than to re-use passwords on different services. That is a big no-no. And there are only so many clever mnemonic devices you can cram into your brain to remember dozens of different passwords, each with their own spelling, caPitaLIZation, $p3c1@l characters and numbers.<\/p>\n

You may want to look into a password manager<\/a> like LastPass or 1Password. These helpful apps help you generate strong passwords and autofill them in whenever you visit a site requiring your login info.<\/p>\n

When creating a Onehub account, you can enforce a complex password policy<\/a> across all your users. This will mean users must create a longer password with a combination of numbers, caps, special characters, etc.<\/p>\n

Changing your password<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re feeling like now might be a good time to beef up your password, changing it is a snap. Just sign in to your account and click the \u201cSettings\u201d tab. From there choose \u201cPassword\u201d from the right hand menu.<\/p>\n

\"Password<\/p>\n

Enter your current password and create the new one as instructed.<\/p>\n

Retrieving a lost password<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Onehub never gives out passwords, and you should never give your password to any of our employees (or anyone else for that matter!).<\/p>\n

If you lose your password, that\u2019s okay! You can reset it quickly by going to the sign in page and clicking \u201cForgot password?\u201d Instructions for resetting your password<\/a> will be sent to the email address associated with your account.<\/p>\n

\"Forgot<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it! If you have any questions about password maintenance or any Onehub feature, feel free to contact our support team<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
