## How can I create users before starting Gitea
Gitea provides a sub-command `gitea migrate` to initialize the database, after which you can use the [admin CLI commands]({{< relref "doc/usage/command-line.en-us.md" >}}) to add users like normal.

## How can I enable password reset
There is no setting for password resets. It is enabled when a [mail service]({{< relref "doc/usage/email-setup.en-us.md" >}}) is configured, and disabled otherwise.
## How can a user's password be changed
- As an **admin**, you can change any user's password (and optionally force them to change it on next login)...
- By navigating to your `Site Administration -> User Accounts` page and editing a user.
- By using the [admin CLI commands]({{< relref "doc/usage/command-line.en-us.md#admin" >}}).
Keep in mind most commands will also need a [global flag]({{< relref "doc/usage/command-line.en-us.md#global-options" >}}) to point the CLI at the correct configuration.
- As a **user** you can change it...
- In your account `Settings -> Account` page (this method **requires** you to know your current password).
- By using the `Forgot Password` link.
If the `Forgot Password/Account Recovery` page is disabled, please contact your administrator to configure a [mail service]({{< relref "doc/usage/email-setup.en-us.md" >}}).
