The plugin I was using is "Approve User Registration". <a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/approve-user-registration/#post-1141" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/approve-user-registration/#post-1141</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17174 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 16:00:04 +0000 Anonymous 17174@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I also think it has to do with a plugin, because I've never had any problems with it! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17172 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 07:58:34 +0000 chrishajer 17172@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I think the reason it was correct <strong>sometimes</strong> would be due to the content of the password. bbPress originally (or a while ago anyway, pre-0.9*) used a 6 character alpha-numeric password. Now, it uses something more complex, and depending on what characters are in the password, maybe some certain characters get dropped in that plugin. If you post a link to the plugin you're using, I can look at it and see if this is likely. You could also contact the plugin author and see if they have any idea.</p> <p>On the special characters in the password email. I suspect the message is just sent as plain text, but those are html entities. I didn't look too hard at it. Maybe you could just put the è in the text of the message and hope the email client can handle it. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17170 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 07:47:22 +0000 annagb 17170@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I hope that the cause is really the plugin.</p> <p>The message depends on the language, obviously. Do you think it could be corrected?</p> <p>I will let you know if I will have again problems with the password. The reason for which I am not sure that the cause was the plugin is that sometimes the password was correct also with the plugin turned on.</p> <p>Thank you! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17159 Wed, 09 Jul 2008 22:18:54 +0000 chrishajer 17159@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>With the plugin turned off, I received the password promptly and it worked. I would place a bet on that Approve Registration plugin causing the trouble.</p> <p>Also, the password message I received has some odd looking characters in it. </p> <pre><code>Il tuo nome utente &amp;egrave;: myusername La tua password &amp;egrave;:</code></pre> <p>The password email arrived with &egrave; in it twice, just like above. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17158 Wed, 09 Jul 2008 22:15:21 +0000 chrishajer 17158@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Try one thing at a time. Let me try registering again and see what the password looks like this time. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17155 Wed, 09 Jul 2008 20:48:49 +0000 annagb 17155@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I see. I also thought that the length was strange and also a user of the forum told me. So now I turn of the plugin, hoping that it is the cause of the problem. If it is not I have to think about the language... Do you agree? Thank you. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17154 Wed, 09 Jul 2008 20:38:37 +0000 chrishajer 17154@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I did receive my password, thanks. The password that was sent does not work though. It appears that the password is not the proper length. Maybe the approve registration plugin is mangling the password somehow, chopping off some characters or stripping some out.</p> <p>Here is a good password from another forum:<br /> <a href="mailto:Nq@bDVwS!APP">Nq@bDVwS!APP</a></p> <p>Here is the one I received from your forum:<br /> <a href="mailto:et@ORSFzWx">et@ORSFzWx</a></p> <p>I changed one or more characters in each password. It's the length I don't like. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17153 Wed, 09 Jul 2008 20:27:11 +0000 annagb 17153@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I use Approve Registration plugin. So I will try to turn it off. Thank you. I think that to change the language is more complicated. Do you think that the problem may be caused by both these things together?<br /> Anyway I approved your registration if you want to try if your password is right or wrong. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17143 Wed, 09 Jul 2008 14:16:19 +0000 chrishajer 17143@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Looks like you're using the Approve Registration plugin (my account is on hold right now.) I would turn that off and see if passwords work properly. If they do, then it's likely this plugin causing problems.</p> <p>The other possibility is that it's due to a language file, since this forum is in Italian. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wrong-password#post-17141 Wed, 09 Jul 2008 09:07:52 +0000 annagb 17141@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.astisti.it/forum" rel="nofollow">www.astisti.it/forum</a></p> <p>I tried to register and once it happened that the password was wrong...

So I have to change the password as admin and to tell them the new one.<br /> May this depend on a plugin? Is there any solution to this problem? Thank you. </p>
