Hopefully you can help me out with a problem that I just can’t resolve.
I’m using Member Edit to allow the member to change their password. But every time without fail the form submits no problem, with no errors but the password never changes.
One point to mention, I am using the Simple Registration module http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/simple-registration to allow users to register and login using email address not username. I’m sure that’s where my problem lies but I’m not 100% sure.
I included hidden fields for username and email thinking it may require one of them, and they are populating correctly, but no joy.
Here’s the code I have in my template:
{exp:sa_member_edit:form return="password-changed" id="change-password"}
<input type="hidden" name="username" value="{username}" />
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="{email}" />
<fieldset class="textfield password">
<label for="current_password" class="required">Current Password</label>
<input type="password" class="validate[required]" name="current_password" />
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="textfield password">
<label for="new_password" class="required">Password</label>
<input type="password" id="new_password" class="validate[required]" name="new_password" />
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="textfield password">
<label for="new_password_confirm" class="required">Confirm password</label>
<input type="password" id="new_password_confirm" class="validate[required,equals[new_password]" name="new_password_confirm" />
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="form-actions">
<input type="submit" value="Change Password" />
</fieldset>
{/exp:sa_member_edit:form}
Thanks for your help!

Hi Nick,
your field for current password should be named “password”, not “current_password”.
I know it’s complicated :)

Oh I already tried that, sorry I thought I mentioned that :)
I just tripple checked, and here’s the code I tested with
{exp:sa_member_edit:form return="change-password/password-changed" id="change-password"}
<input type="hidden" name="username" value="{username}" />
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="{email}" />
<fieldset class="textfield password">
<label for="password" class="required">Current Password</label>
<input type="password" class="validate[required]" name="password" />
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="textfield password">
<label for="new_password" class="required">Password</label>
<input type="password" id="new_password" class="validate[required]" name="new_password" />
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="textfield password">
<label for="new_password_confirm" class="required">Confirm password</label>
<input type="password" id="new_password_confirm" class="validate[required,equals[new_password]" name="new_password_confirm" />
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="form-actions">
<input type="submit" value="Change Password" />
</fieldset>
{/exp:sa_member_edit:form}
Using this code I get the error “The action you have requested is invalid.” when I submit the form.
Next couple days I’ll perhaps do a test with the same code with the simple registration module disabled in case they are clashing.
Thanks
Nick

Oh, sorry. Sometimes I get lost in this module myself :)
Your fields should be named: “current_password”, “password” and “password_confirm” (so without “new_” prefix)

Yey that got it! In hindsight I don’t know how I missed it, but yes, it’s an easy area to get lost in :)
Thanks so much for your help.
