    If we have disabled Dashboard access for site users, is there a way for them to directly change the password? Not just a reset, but enter their chosen password?

    On our to do list is an addon to make the whole registration process better.

    It should include:

    1) registration form builder with custom fields (like add listing form)
    2) Front end login/register/edit profile forms
    3) better author/member profile pages with tabbed informations similar to listing page, with favorites, listings entered, submitted reviews, bio a big picture and so on.
    4) a authors/members directory to go through website members.

    I’m putting all the pressure that I can on the team to make it happened by the end of the month Jeff, but I can’t guarantee it.

    Now the only option would be to use a 3rd party plugin.

    Thanks,

    Guys,

    Is this topic still relevant? We would also like that users can reset their passwords themselves. Now they get a complicated code, or we have to enter a password for them in the CMS, something that unknown people don’t like. Or did we mis something?

    Paolo, you mentioned a third party plugin. We are now doing some tests on staging with buddypress, but that doesn’t fix this issue we found out. So: what plugin would you recommend?

    Thanks again!

    Buddypress allows to change your password only if you are logged in.

    If you are not logged in the only way is resetting with the long autognerated code.

    There isn’t a plugin (fortunately) that allows a user to change his password while logged out.

    Thanks

    Ok, so with buddypress it should work. We’ll have a deeper look!

    Thanks!
