I'm trying to change the email account for my account but the page says my password is wrong. Except I just used that password to login and it's saved in a password manager so I'm just doing a copy/paste. Is there something about the "current password" field that would have issues with some characters in my randomly generated password that the normal login password box wouldn't?

I just want to change my email address.

I've had a similar problem, as described here. A quick check seems to confirm that it's still present in my case. :/

So I was able to work around this. I logged out, went to the full login page, and did the password reset link. I then made a new password that only had letters and numbers and was shorter than my normal generated passwords. Then I was able to update my profile info.

Probably some weird issue with that password field compared to the others, but at least there was a way around it.

Ah, thank you for that--it looks like a useful workaround! ^_^
