Hello,

I am attempting to retrieve the password reminder answer and change the user password programatically with this code:  I have a requirement for custom registration functionality with built-in workflow - the registration peice works just fine - now I need to give the user the ability to change their password.  Normally I'd just do this with core functionality - but because of the requirements for the work I'm doing - this isn't feasible.

********************

Dim objUserInfo As DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserInfo
objUserInfo = DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserController.GetCurrentUserInfo()
 Dim strPasswordAnswer As String = objUserInfo.Membership.PasswordAnswer
If strPasswordAnswer Is Nothing Then
      strPasswordAnswer = "Blah"
End If
Dim strNewPassword As String = Me.txtPassword.Text.Trim
Dim strOldPassword As String = String.Empty
strOldPassword = DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserController.GetPassword(objUserInfo, objUserInfo.Membership.PasswordAnswer.ToString)
If strOldPassword <> Me.txtOldPassword.Text.Trim Then
     Me.lblError.Text = "Current password is incorrect !"
     Me.rowError.Visible = True
     Me.rowSuccess.Visible = False
     Exit Sub
End If
           
DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserController.ChangePassword(objUserInfo, strOldPassword, strNewPassword)
objUserInfo.Membership.UpdatePassword = True
Me.rowSuccess.Visible = True

********************

strPasswordAnswer comes back as Nothing - even though for the user I'm testing with - there is an encrypted password answer in field 'PasswordAnswer' in table 'aspnet_Membership'.  In this example, the password answer I'm testing with is "Blah" - when I pass this string to retrieve the current password, it works - I am able to get the current password for the user - and subsequently change the password.  I don't know why Dim strPasswordAnswer As String = objUserInfo.Membership.PasswordAnswer  returns nothing...

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?  My development environment is using DNN 4.7.0

Thanks in advance, Al

Can any one suggest how to change any user password by our own module for admin, we want to customize this for helping some users those who doesn't know how to change their password.
