The Members module is used to administrate members and edit various information pertaining to them. At all times, you will have at least one member which is your login member. This is a special member and cannot be deleted. You can identify this member by the Username, which will be the same as your login username.
Users who have subscribed using the subscription module have their member profiles saved here.
There are two portions to the members module, the item organizer at the top, and a specialized visual editor at the bottom.
The item organizer lists all the members and various information pertaining to their member profile. Using this, you can deactivate and activate members with the activate button  . If you wish to open up the member profile for edit, you can use the edit button  on the right. If you wish to delete a member, you can use the delete button  on the right side. You cannot delete the admin member, as mentioned above. There is also a password reset button  , which is used to reset the password to a random string which is then e-mailed to the member via the e-mail address tied to the member profile. 
The visual editor allows you to edit the information pertaining to the member. Fields marked with an asterick (*) are required in order to save the changes. The only page to the member profiles is the 'User info' tab, which is used to save various notes, and operates as a normal visual editor. It should be noted that the password will not be displayed, as it is common security policy to encrypt and not display user passwords. Therefor, instead of supplying passwords to users who have forgotten their pasword, it is instead standard practice to use the password reset function, or input the 'Password' and 'Confirm Password' fields for a custom password and save.
If you change the password for the admin member, the password for the login into the CMS will also change to that password, as well as the FTP login information tied to your page.
