We have a site where we need to mange username and password, because those are shared with another system.

If users have the ability to edit their password it messes up our integration. I can't find a way to diable the change password functionality...any ideas???

What about editing the skin so they don't have access to the change password page?

For example, on the skinname.ascx page you can comment out the part of the line that displays their name that links to that page, I believe it is dnn:USER runat="server" id="dnnUSER" />

Your skin may be in a different place, mine was in  C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\AppName\Portals\_default\Skins\DNN-Blue.

However, that removes the User Name completely.  What I would rather do is just display it as text.  If anyone knows how to do that please let me know!

Set up a new page call User Profile and add module User Account to this page.  Limit the permission to access the User Account module to roles of which the users can change password.

Under menu Admin -> Site Settings, go to Advanced Settings -> Page Management and update the User Page to the User Profile page that you just setup.

For accounts that you do not want user to change the password, do not put them into the roles that have access to the User Account module.

Sorry, let me re-word what I wrote originally.

We have a few moderators of our site that we want to delegate the task of creating and maintaining users.

At the moment the only way I can find to allow someone to create and manage users is to give someone edit rights to a page. This gives them the Iconbar at the top of the page with the

Site Users Roles Files Help
 links. The "Users" link is a URL of " __doPostBack('IconBar.ascx$cmdUsers','')". I want to have a page that is the same as the results of clicking this link.

Regards

Andrew

..\admin\Users
manageusers.ascx
change to visible ="false"

<dnn:commandbutton id="cmdPassword" runat="server" visible="false"
     resourcekey="cmdPassword" imageurl="~/images/save.gif"
     causesvalidation="False" />

and just change it to true if you need to make a change. thats the way I do it
