Users Passwords

[Josepha]

HI All,

I would like to have restrictions as an admin to my users not to have the capability to change their password. Is there a way that i can control that, i couldn't find anything related while i was creating the roles. Any help would be so appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, Josepha.

You have to modify two core php scripts to do that:

In modules/Users/Users/EditView.php and modules/Users/DetailView.php

Change this line:

 if (empty($GLOBALS['sugar_config']['disc_client']) || !$GLOBALS['sugar_config']['disc_client']) { 
  

To that one:

 if ((empty($GLOBALS['sugar_config']['disc_client']) || !$GLOBALS['sugar_config']['disc_client']) && is_admin($current_user)) { 
  

Cheers.

Andre',

Thank you so much for your reply i really apprecaite it. Now i can be sure that no users will be able to change their password on their own. Thank you.

Just wonder Josepha,

Do they have the ability to change their password elsewhere instead? If not, how are passwords dealt with and controlled at your business. Kind of interested to hear.

Thanks!

eggsurplus,

There is no other option for them to change the password, and i can control their passwords from the admin account very easily. Thank you.

Just following up on passwords without having to create a new thread. I've installed Sugar 6.0 , is there a way to resend a password for created account? I've created an account for user and sent him the login credentials on the wrong e-mail.

thanks for your answer
