Can I force password change on login?

Is it possible to force password change on login for imported members, who will have been sent a default password (when asked to use the new S2Member system to pay for their subscription)?

I’ve tried the plugin https://github.com/lumpysimon/wp-force-password-change but it gives me a redirect loop when I use it with S2Member.

Hi David.

I don’t know how to require them to do that… You’d need to search for a plugin that does it and doesn’t conflict with s2Member. What is the redirection loop that you described? From what URL to what other URL, etc?

Thanks for the reply. My browser told me there was a redirection loop and gave no details. However I imagine that it’s something to do with s2Member trying to go to the Login Welcome page and the plugin I tested going to the User Profile page in order to change the password.

Is there any way of getting s2Member not automatically going to the Login Welcome page?

Hmm… no, it’ll go there. You can set a URL instead of a page. Not sure if that’ll help in your case, though. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Login Welcome Page -> Special Redirection URL[/hilite]

You could create a hack with the [hilite mono]"ws_plugin__s2member_login_redirect"[/hilite] filter to change it dynamically, though.

Thanks for alerting me to “ws_plugin__s2member_login_redirect” because I did a search on it and found http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/how-to-remove-s2member-login-redirect-hook/ with Jason mentioning the One-Time-Offer feature which allows me to redirect all users on first login to a particular page.

I found some code to produce a password change form at http://pippinsplugins.com/change-password-form-short-code/ so now I can direct the first-time login to a page with the password change shortcode on it requesting users change their password before proceeding!

Sounds great! :)
