Does this also change the community account log-in email address? I suspect it doesn't but have been looking to change my community email address without having to create a new account and losing all of my posting history, badges, etc.
Great question! There are a few extra steps to change the community email.
- follow the steps in this post to change the admin account for the hub (create new account for the new email address)
- Log in the community with old account
- Select Preferences from the upper right menu
4. Select the gear icon as pictured below to change the email address
- Follow the instructions to change the email address
The next time you need to log in, you will need to use the new account credentials.

Ok. So I created a new account, changed the admin account (using the new account's email address) for both of my hubs, changed the primary community email address to the same email as the hubs admin email.
All of this was done from my laptop. Next, I logged out of my community account but can no longer log in. When I click the "Log in" button on the the hubitat community I'm redirected to a "Please login to your Hubitat.com Account" page with "SIGN IN / SIGN UP" button that does nothing. The same issue occurs on Firefox and Chrome.
Oddly, I was able to sign in with my new primary email address from Chrome on my phone which if what I'm posting from.
Any ideas?
Forgot to mention that I cleared my browser cache as well and no change.
So the good news is that it worked 
The not so good, is that I cannot replicate the problem in Chrome on my computer. Mine works as it did for you when using your phone. Have you tried incognito?
More weirdness; I can now login to the community from Chrome. Firefox remains an issue. Using a private window in Firefox does the same thing. Here's what the page looks like:
