The latest update to emoncms made a couple of changes to the emoncms login implementation. You may find emoncms presenting you with the error "Incorrect password, if you're sure its correct, try clearing your browser cache."
If you're using passwords with special characters, the way emoncms now handles these has changed.
I created a small tool that applies the MySQL real escape string modification that was removed from emoncms, so it's possible to login again after which, you can change your password in emoncms.
The tool is here and runs locally in your browser using javascript, so is safe. Nothing is sent to a remote server. You can check it with a test string and the browser's network tab.
"Incorrect password" after update - how to fix.
