Hi there,

Is there a possibility to force certain users to change their passwords on their next login?

thanks,

P
Hey Felix,

Currently EasySocial doesn't have such functionality but I realized that Joomla has actually added this recently. I have logged this into our issue tracker and we'll try to add this into the next major milestone

But I need all my users (4000) to reset their password. Should I really click each user seperately?

Even Joomla also do not have a feature allow you to set multiple user require reset password from backend.

If you would like to set all the existing user require to reset their password, then you can try execute this from your database :


// update all the existing user require reset password.
update `#__social_users` set `require_reset` = 1



// Do not set superadmin require reset password for site admin
// 123 is the user id, you have to find your site admin ID then replace it before execute.
update `#__social_users` set `require_reset` = 0 where `user_id` = 123;


Replace #__ to your table prefix.

Joomla core DOES have that option.
In the Joomla core User Management you can select all the users, press the batch button and select Reset password

Perhaps you guys can create a feature request under this Easysocial category https://stackideas.com/forums/easysocial-feature-requests so next time our developer start to do the next milestone Easysocial development then we can easier look for it under this feature request category.
