Changing a Wiki User password

Ideally, they go to the password reset page - https://www.profounddecisions.co.uk/empireplotwiki/Special:PasswordReset for the plot wiki - and that works.

If not, ssh in:

• SSH into the server
• Go to the directory for the wiki:
  • Plot Wiki cd /srv/www/htdocs/mediawiki-crew-empire
  • Public Wiki cd /srv/www/htdocs/mediawiki-public
  • Crew Wiki cd /srv/www/htdocs/mediawiki-crew-pd
• Run the script: php maintenance/changePassword.php --user={USERS_USER_NAME} --password=VerySecurePassword

• Suggest they go to change it at https://www.profounddecisions.co.uk/empireplotwiki/Special:ChangeCredentials/ (replace for correct wiki location)

That's it.
