Manually set initial password for each imported user #7

What did I miss? Are passwords automatically created? I was going to use a field to set the password for the first time, like phone or dob. Then require them to change it on first login.

Passwords are currently generated automatically (random). But you are right, this should be more configurable! I'll take this as a feature request.

Currently an imported user needs to reset his password with the "forgot password" feature of MODX.

An idea how we should handle this? Send user an email with his randomly generated password?

Something like this? http://rtfm.modx.com/extras/revo/login/login.register#Login.Register-SendinganActivationEmail

The possibility to set an first time password manually with a field in the CSV would also be handy.

Has this been implemented?

gadgetto commented 6 years ago

Yes! UserImport can generate passwords for you or you can import the password per user via CSV.
