How to Troubleshoot Login and Password Reset Issues in PushPress

If you're experiencing login or password reset issues in PushPress, this guide provides comprehensive troubleshooting steps to help you regain access. Follow the sections below based on your specific issue.

General Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Verify Email Address: Ensure you are using the correct email address associated with your PushPress account. If the email is incorrect, update it with the help of an admin.

  2. Check Internet Connection: Ensure you are connected to a stable Wi-Fi or cellular network.

  3. Update the App: If using the PushPress app, ensure it is updated to the latest version. Uninstall and reinstall the app if necessary.

  4. Try a Different Browser or Device: If accessing PushPress via a browser, try using a different browser (e.g., Chrome, Safari) or device.

Password Reset Procedures

For Members:

  1. Use the "Forgot Password?" link on the login screen to receive a password reset email.

  2. Follow the instructions in the email to set a new password.

  3. After logging in, you can change your password anytime in the Account Settings section of the app.

For Staff:

  1. If staff cannot reset their password, an admin can send a "Request Personal Information" link from Core to allow them to update their password securely.

  2. Ensure the staff profile has the necessary permissions enabled for app or dashboard access.

Email Verification and Account Access

  • If you cannot log in or reset your password, confirm that the email address you are using is the one associated with your PushPress account.

  • For app-specific programs like Tactical Games, ensure you are using the correct app (e.g., Train App instead of Members App).

App-Specific Login Issues

  • If login issues persist, try force-quitting the app and reopening it.

  • If the problem continues, uninstall and reinstall the app to ensure it is updated.

  • For connectivity issues, switch to a more stable network.

Staff and Admin Access Permissions

  • Ensure staff profiles have the appropriate permissions enabled for app or dashboard access: - Go to the Staff section in Core. - Open the staff member’s profile. - Enable "Control Panel / Staff App access" and save changes.

  • If a staff member still cannot log in, confirm their account associations and permissions.

Resolving Persistent Login Failures

  • If login issues persist despite following the above steps, consider the following: - Check for server-side issues, such as outages with cloud providers like AWS, which may temporarily prevent logins. - Wait for service restoration and try logging in again.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve most login and password reset issues in PushPress. If problems persist, contact PushPress support for further assistance.
