      Hi,

      I was trying to add a new MAC address filter, trying to add IP Addresses but after saving it doesn't save.
      I was trying to add a new user but when I go to User Manager it is asking me to change my login password where it should show me the list.

      I don't know what is happening on my pfSense Community Edition. It is not working properly.
      Does anyone know how to solve my issue?

      Thanks,
      borgy

        Have you tried another browser and/or incoginto mode?
        Some browser plugins cause weird problems sometimes...

          If you are seeing the password option when you go to the user manager it's because you are using an admin account that is not actually admin and hitting this bug: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/9541
          There is a patch but you can just manually go to the user manager url as shown there.

          If all changes you make don't report errors but also don't seem to apply you almost certainly have the User - Config: Deny Config Write permission set on your account.
