Cannot change primary email address on account

I’m trying to manage my ask.libreoffice.org account.
I have a login at user.documentfoundation.org.
I’ve added a second email address, and I want to make it the primary so I can delete the original primary email address.
I cannot advance past the screen shown in the referenced screen grab.

Also, I don’t understand the Linked Profiles. I don’t understand why Bugzilla appears; I have a separate login at
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/

I’m not sure, but it looks as if it is impossible to change the email address. IMHO, you have to create a new account on auth.documentfoundation.org.

Thanks…

Actually, I finally managed to change it.

Despite documentation to the contrary, which indicates that one cannot change the primary email address without adding a secondary email address, I was (finally) able to edit the box containing the primary email address.

After giving my feedback, I was mysteriously able to change the primary email address today.
Someone must have changed something on the server, 'cause I couldn’t do this before.
Of course, they’re not telling…
:wink:

How exactly?

I just clicked in the text box showing my “primary” email address. And this time (unlike all the other times I tried in the past several months), I was able to type in the preferred email address.

Previously, I could not even make the text box “active” by clicking in it. It appeared to be “read only” despite my trying using three different browsers…

I have no information on what might have changed in the server software. I guess you’d have to inquire with those who maintain it… whoever they are…

The so-called “friendly experts” have proven to be not so friendly… no response whatsoever…

since June who knows what was sent to them, and actually received … :confused:

Anywayz, concerning your concerns, the friendly doc is probably here : Single sign-on (SSO) - The Document Foundation Wiki
and some friendly support may be friendly reached thru Internet Relay Chat - The Document Foundation Wiki #tdf-infra

So amusing…

From this page:

Known Services

  • Bugzilla (SSO connected, but needs a separate account)

Such a “friendly” document… :wink:

sure. so very.


on the other hand, LO being somehow a collaborative approach, open source, etc …,
feel free to get familiar with the friendly real life details,
e.g. https://community.documentfoundation.org/t/decision-approve-usd-10-800-for-performing-the-upstream-bugzilla-6-0-release/12942
and get involved: Infrastructure | LibreOffice - Free and private office suite - Based on OpenOffice - Compatible with Microsoft
which might be a bit less amusing, but could be benefitial for all of us :wink:
