Changing or Resetting a user's password in VIA

If you’ve forgotten your password and need to reset it, or a member of staff member has forgotten their password and you need to reset it for them, you can use the following guides.

If you have forgotten your password

• Go to your VIA login (your website address followed by /webdadi)

• Enter your email in the username field

• Click the forgot password? link which is underneath the Sign In button

• These will then send an email from which you can reset your password. Please note, a valid email address of a registered user must be input otherwise the email will not send.

• We recommend users don’t copy and paste their new password from the email into VIA but rather manually enter it to login. Copying and pasting can inadvertently enter a space at the end of the password

Resetting your own password

• Login to VIA (your website address followed by /webdadi)

• Go to the Users tab on the left hand side and select Manage

• Search for your user account using the search box, or click the search button to view all users

• Select yourself from the list by double clicking your name in the list, or right click and select edit

• Click the Change Password button

• Re-enter a new password

• Click Save
