I do not appear to be able to change my password. Are passwords limited to a certain number of letters or something?

Paul, you're back! :O (Welcome back ^^)

I just tried to change my password and it worked... Passwords shouldn't be limited to a certain number of character, although I haven't tried anything above 20ish characters.

All I can tell you is to try again... Just be careful that there isn't any leading or trailing space if you're copy-pasting your "old" password.

Hmm, still doesn't seem to work.

One of the passwords I tried was 11 characters with 8 letters + 4 numbers. The other was 8 characters with six letters and two symbols.

Just tried with

testing123

(not a real password) and it didn't work.

I get the error message "An error occured while saving." each time.

I tried with testing123 too, but didn't get any error.

Well, perhaps you can try to log out and log in again. This will make sure that the password you were entering in "old password" is the right password. I mean, perhaps you were entering a password that you tought were your current password but actually isn't.

If it's not that, then for now I don't know what it is...

Actually, sysko made me realize that if the message is "An error occured while saving." and not "Password error. Please try again." then it means Tatoeba won't save your new password. I'm looking into this.

@Trang maybe it's related to the biptaste's bug, maybe it's not really closed

Okay should be fixed now.
