If you have created an account here on Fandom, you will want to be sure to be logged in to it so all of your contributions are recorded under your account. Follow the steps on this page to learn about logging in to your account!
Step by step[]
The sign in/register buttons
- On the top right of every page on all wikis, you will find a blank avatar icon and links to Sign in and Register if you are not signed in.
- Hover over or tap that icon to bring up the user menu.
- Click the "Sign In" button in the menu.
- On the sign-in page, you can start using your Fandom account by filling in your username and password and clicking on "Sign In".
- If you have a Fandom account that is connected with Google, Facebook, Twitch, or Apple, you can use the respective button to sign in instead.
- Congratulations! You have logged in to Fandom. You can now start editing!
You can tell that you are logged in by checking whether your avatar has replaced the blank avatar.
When using a mobile device, the options are the same and the interface is adapted to your screen.
If you don't have a Fandom account yet, you need to create one first.
Other steps[]
Logging out[]
- To log out, click on your avatar at the top right of the page to bring up the user menu.
- Click "Sign Out" button to log out of your Fandom account.
- Alternatively, visit Special:UserLogout, and press 'confirm'.
Changing your password[]
To change your password, visit your user preferences and inside the first tab "User profile" you can find the section "My password" (with a link to the Account Settings page) in the first group ("Basic information").
Alternatively, directly visit Special:ChangePassword.
Two-Factor Authentication[]
You have the option to add an extra layer of protection to your account by enabling the Two-Factor Authentication.
Problems logging in[]
To log in on Fandom, you must have cookies enabled on your browser. If you appear to be able to log in but appear logged out straight away, it is very likely a cookie problem. If you are certain that cookies are enabled, make sure you have not inadvertently listed www.fandom.com or auth.fandom.com on a list of sites to never allow cookies for. You can check this in the privacy options of any browser you might be using. Also make sure that your computer's date and time are set correctly. If they are not, cookies may expire before they are supposed to.
Note that some firewall and ad-blocking softwares may interfere with the cookie that the wiki uses to keep a person logged in.
The issue may also be a cache problem. You can try bypassing your cache to see if that corrects the issue.
If you are unable to use the login form, make sure JavaScript is enabled on the login page.
If your account has been globally disabled by user choice or by Fandom then you will be unable to log in.
Still not working?[]
If you are still not able to log in, please contact Fandom, where the Community Team will be able to help restore access to your account. Please make sure you are sending your message from the email address connected with your account, so that we can verify that the account belongs to you.
What if I forget my password?[]
If you forget your password, you can request a new one by clicking on the "Forgot password?" link below the password field on the log in page, and later by adding your username. After that, you will receive an email to the address you're using for your account, and after clicking on the related button, you will be able to set a new password on the Account Settings page.
