A VIVO instance can be configured to use Internal or External Authentication. If it is configured to use Internal Authentication, once when you are logged in, you can edit your user account.
In the case, a user forgot its own user account password, it might be reset in two ways.
The first one is by contacting VIVO system administrator (for instance via Contact form - http://[yourdomainvivo]/contact).
The VIVO system administrator can manage all user accounts details including initialization of resetting the password (see the picture below).
Moreover, the VIVO instance can be configured to allow users to initialize resetting its own password. In that case, login dialog includes 'I forgot my password' as it is shown below.
By clicking at the link I forgot my password the following form is open.
After filling this form, an email will be sent to user account with the instructions how to reset the password.
