[Plugin: SB Welcome Email Editor] Changing user's password using wp_update_user doesn't ch

I also have this problem.

This should work as long as the action fired by the system you are using is the same as that of the back end. Try a plugin like CYC which I think will work.

I’me using wp_update_user() function when changing the password.

Ok sure.. I just checked the code and I am using the action called ‘profile_update’ to check for the existence of pass1 and pass2 in $_POST, checking they match and then storing the contents in usermeta. I suspect that unless your front end system uses the same variable names and fires the same action then this is unlikely to be compatible.

Yes, this is only called in the backend of WordPress when a user updates their profile.

I’d recommend changing the plugin so it also supports wp_update_user and wp_set_password unctions as these are probably the most common ways people change a users password when not using the edit profile page.
