PrefPass

Oh well. Thanks much for the quick response!

Hi nightshadow,

Can you provide a link to the site where you are using the plugin?

Also, it sounds like you might be using an old version (the login screen currently prompts for only email by default). You might want to try downloading the latest (no need to re-enter any data, just replace the folder “wp-prefpass-logreg” in your plugins folder).

Thanks for the note, Chiliberto. It’s true, right now if you want to change your email address in WordPress, you have to stop using PrefPass for that site. The password being autogenerated, however, is just due to the fact that you revert to the normal WordPress behavior.

PrefPass needs some global identifier to know who you are across sites; right now that identifier is email address. We’re planning on allowing users to have multiple email addresses in the future, which would solve this problem. Do you have any thoughts as to how you’d like to see this handled within the plugin? We’d love to hear your ideas or additional feedback.

This was a bug in the plugin, fixed now — thanks Froco!
