E-member needs to customize his own Password after Resetting it

[Raymond Nelson]

If an E-member forgets his Password and clicks on the Forgot Password? link, a pop up appears on his screen labeled Password Reset asking for his E-mail address. Once he Enters his E-mail address an E-mail is sent to him with a random password

Example

Dear Scott Nelson

You have reset your password.

Membership details:

Username: scott

Password: Xt$!WhJe0sxH

Thank You

Is there anyway to allow the E-member to change this generic Password to something that he desires and can easily remember?

After they log back in, using the random password, they can change it from their profile page.

[Raymond Nelson]

Thank you very much.

Is there any way to change the E-mail that is sent to them to tell they can go to the profile page and change the random password to the password that they want?

[admin]

Yeah, you can customize the forgot password email to add instructions there. Edit this email from the “Email Settings” menu of the plugin.

Thank you very much for your time

I have the same problem but I’m not seeing the capability in their profile for them to edit any information. Must I activate something to allow them to edit their own info?

Thanks!

Two other issues;

1) I’d like to have the member list automatically default to alphabetical sort rather than sign up date.

2) Is there a way to ensure members will not expire?

Is there a “Password” field on the profile form? They should be able to just type in a new password.

[admin]

The plugin automatically creates a profile page when you install it (just like it creates a registration page). You can go to the pages/forms settings menu to see the URL of the profile page. Your logged-in members can go to the profile page and change the password.

The default sorting of members menu can’t be changed. You can click on the heading of a column to sort it using a different column.

When you create a membership level, there is an option to pick the “No expiry or until cancelled” option.
