Missing Password change fields

When you go to change your password at Users -> Your Profile in your Dashboard, you should find a “Generate Password” button towards to bottom.

Click that to generate a new strong random password, and if you don’t want to use that, simply highlight it like you would with any text field and type in the password you want then save.

The problem I’m having is that no such field exists, anywhere on my profile page when I’m in the Dashboard.

I’ll try updating to 4.4 and see if that makes a difference or not.

Nope, updating to 4.4 didn’t restore those missing Password Update fields. Guess I need to go another round with the hosting service for the site, as it was their ‘site builder’ I used to create the site (although from the looks of things that ‘site builder’ is just a front end for making a quick Word Press site). Maybe someday I’ll actually be able to set passwords I’ll be able to easily remember myself.

Do you have a Generate Password button at Users -> Your Profile?

Nope, and that’s what makes me think it might be the hosting service I’m using rather than something else.

Possibly, that’s really weird. Just to be sure, try deactivating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the Twenty Fifteen theme to rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

Finally, I got some time to work on my site again. I tried both of those, the password change fields are still missing. At this point I’m considering it a problem with either the site-builder I used or the hosting service I use (they provided the site-builder) so I’ll have to contact them about this instead now.

I also need to figure out how to be able to add page-specific posts, with just a partial post on the main page that links to the full post, so that I can attempt to do a variety of different themed tales, and maybe even some multiple-chapter ones, without everything getting jumbled up on the main page.

If you’re in the text editor, use this where you want the content to split:

<!--more-->

If you’re in the visual editor, the button looks like a line horizontally dividing two rectangles.

If your theme is built properly, everything above the More tag will appear on the front and in post listings, where as everything below will require visiting the post directly or clicking a “Read More” (text differs depending on theme) link.
