I actually did the password reset initially even though it made no sense when it says "No account exists with that user name." and I tried again and still get "No account exists with that user name." Is there a way to give it my email and get my username back. I mean I use bitwarden and create the login in bitwarden and then use its paste feature when making the account in order to avoid typos. I also did try using my email as a username but I get the same "No account exists with that user name." message.
I've just made it so you can log in with an email address and the user name field disregards case. So you can use a mixture of upper and lower case and it'll cope.
Maybe that'll help!
thank you sir. that seems to have done it and looks like its the capitals in my username that caused the issue. was able to login with my username.
Great, thanks for sticking with me here your perseverance has made PieFed better!
