Until today, you’ve required separate accounts to log in to the forum, and at [johnnydecimal.com](http://johnnydecimal.com). These accounts are being connected.

From today, you can log in to the forum with your Johnny.Decimal account.

**Forum passwords will stop working on 15 November 2026**.

## To log in

1. Click **Log In** and choose **With your Johnny.Decimal account**.
2. Sign in with the email address of your forum account.

### If you already have a Johnny.Decimal account with that address

Your accounts are already connected. Your posts, your username and your settings stay as they are.

### If you don’t have a Johnny.Decimal account with that address

Sign up using the email address of your forum account. You’ll need to set a new password.

### If your Johnny.Decimal account has a different address to your forum account

1. Log in to the forum with your password before 15 November 2026.
2. A banner at the top of the page has a **Connect Johnny.Decimal account** button. Click it.
3. Confirm, then sign in to your Johnny.Decimal account if required. Your accounts are now connected.

#### If you see a form to create a new forum account

If you already have a forum account, don’t complete the form. Instead:

1. Sign out at [johnnydecimal.com/sign-out](https://johnnydecimal.com/sign-out).
2. Log in to the forum again, and sign in with the email address of your forum account.

If you completed the form by mistake, send me a message and I’ll merge the two accounts.

## Other changes

- Forum notifications go to the email address of your Johnny.Decimal account. To change the address, change it in your Johnny.Decimal account: see [Change your email address](https://johnnydecimal.com/support/account-billing/change-email). The forum uses the new address from your next login.
- **Log Out** on the forum also signs you out of [johnnydecimal.com](http://johnnydecimal.com).
- Forum two-factor authentication and forum passkeys stop working on 15 November 2026.
  - When you log in with your Johnny.Decimal account, the forum doesn’t ask for your forum second factor.
  - To protect your login, add a passkey or an authenticator app to your Johnny.Decimal account in its [security settings](https://johnnydecimal.com/account/security).
