Hi,
Is there a way to prevent a user from changing their password?
I'm tired of someone changing their password to 'Ducati' for their motorcycle website even after being told not too, as it's not secure.
Thanks :)

Hi Paul,
How are they changing their password currently? Do they have access to the accounts section, or are they doing it through "My Account" in the CMS?
If it's through the "My Account" section, you can edit the accounts section, enable system field editing, and edit the password field. Under "Advanced Options" you can uncheck the box for "My Account". This will remove their ability to change their password from there.
Hope this helps
