Adding Users – Password Glitch

    Just following up on this issue, discussed a few months back —

    Periodically I need to set up a new user from Users > Add New and there is glitch with CAS Maestro that causes it to hide the password field — making it impossible to add a new user.

    I have been de-activating CAS Maestro before adding new users but hope this issue might be resolved in a future release. Let me know if some testing or other input from my end would be of assistance.

    Otherwise, this plugin has been a tremendous help and I’m very grateful!

  • I just ran into this issue, and removing line 159 in cas-maestro.php add_filter('show_password_fields', array(&$this, 'show_password_fields')); worked for me. You have to enter a password but just using a long random string seems to work fine.

    Thanks so much for sharing! Worked for me as well.

    The problem with just removing this line is that the password fields will then show up on the users’ profile page, which might be confusing if they are expected to log in with CAS.

    A better approach might be to replace the line with something like

    global $pagenow;
if ($pagenow == 'profile.php') {
  add_filter('show_password_fields', array(&$this, 'show_password_fields'), 999);
}

    to still hide the password fields on the profile page.
