    7.4.3 upgrade from 7.3.4... Member Types fields are locked

    Hey all,

    I am developing a Member login section and all works perfectly. In trying to create a forgotten password page, I wanted to give a member the ability to change password and the default member type, "Member," lacks the "Info" tab that the default macro code references, plus there's no way to change the type so that the member can view their lost password question and use it to authenticate in order to change their password.

    Here's a screenshot of which I'm seeing. Am I not understanding something in this upgrade, or is there an issue? In 7.3.4, there was "Property Name," "Member can edit" and "Show on profile" displayed. I have manually changed these values in SQL to all be true...

    Thanks for any assistance!

    I would like to know this too. Did you ever find anything out Scott?

    Unfortunately, I never found the answer to lost password questions, but I was able to create a lost password mechanism where the user gets a link e-mailed to them that includes their 36 character alphanumeric user GUID in the querystring. The destination page checks that against a valid user, and if found, displays a form to change the password.

    Does that help as a solution?

    Actually, I was more interested in why all the member properties are locked and why I can't move a member from one member type to another. Also, you shouldn't have to manually change those values in the database. I feel like the backoffice member section doesn't work as it should.

    No doubt... unless we're just missing something, which if that's the case, the solution is far from clear.
