    Avoiding member password reuse

    Hello,

    I have a new requirement that when a member edits their password, they're not allowed to reuse the old one. I can get the old password's hashed value with Member.GetCurrentMember().Password, but can't figure out how to generate the hashed value for the proposed new password for comparison.

    There's this method EncodePassword in umbraco.providers.members.UmbracoMembershipProvider - is it possible to get to this in codebehind?

    - Andrew

    Apparently so, thanks Thomas H.

    String EncodedPass = ((umbraco.providers.members.UmbracoMembershipProvider)System.Web.Security.Membership.Provider).EncodePassword("ClearPass");
