• I cannot find another instance of someone experiencing this problem, but on my multisite network, sub-Administrator roles are seeing this notice:

    Notice: You’re using the auto-generated password for your account. Would you like to change it?

    That’s not actually true. I have changed the password for the accounts but this notice still displays.

    Things I’ve tried:
    Changing the password
    Hitting “No thanks, do not remind me again”
    Turning off all plugins
    Using twentyfifteen
    The function below

    function remove_default_password_nag() {
      global $user_ID;
      delete_user_setting('default_password_nag', $user_ID);
      update_user_option($user_ID, 'default_password_nag', false, true);
    }
    add_action('admin_init', 'remove_default_password_nag');

    This was happening before the auto-generated password and after it.

    Where should I look next? wp-config? database?
