Hi,
I’ve set my forum to a compulsory change of password when a new user first logs on. When they log on the message at the top of the screen says:
<p class=”spProfileFailure”>Forum rules require you to change your password in order to view forum or save your profile</p>
Otherwise, it seems to be working. The password can be changed and the new user can log in formally thereafter.
How can I get rid of the coding part of the message?
regards
Peter
Wow. I AM surprised that has not come up before now. Looks like a small bug. I will open a ticket now and investigate for a fix. If it is easy I can post it here but it WILL get into the next update due alongside WordPress 4 which is now in beta 4.
Sorry about that… I guess not many people use this feature!
If you do not want to wait for the update and are happy to make code changes then the file you need to edit is:
/forum/profile/ahah/sp-ahah-profile.php
You need to scroll down to line 363 – about 75% of the way through the file. Locate the block of code that reads:
$msg = sp_text('Forum rules require you to change your password in order to view forum or save your profile');
$msg = apply_filters('sph_change_pw_msg', $msg);
$message = '<p class="spProfileFailure">'.$msg.'</p>';
$message = esc_js($message);
and change it to the code lines below:
$msg = sp_text('Forum rules require you to change your password in order to view forum or save your profile');
$msg = apply_filters('sph_change_pw_msg', $msg);
$msg = esc_js($msg);
$message = '<p class="spProfileFailure">'.$msg.'</p>';
and that should fix it up for you. Again – apologies for the oversight.
