They can not change their userid.

And why would they not be allowed to have a new password?

1. cant be changed

2. remove the editable fields from the appropriate templates. start with MEMBERINFO

3. remove the editable fields from the appropriate templates. start with MEMBERINFO

That attitude is the fastest way to get ignored by anyone who could help you.

Hello all,
We are implementing single sign on to our forums via our dealer portal. To do this, we are exporting user id's and passwords from our portal and hardmapping them to our forums. As such, we wish to prevent password changes. I've read the above posts, but I have no idea how to remove the editable fields nor all the templates that might be involved. I know it is a lot to ask, but if someone could take the time to tell me how to do this and which templates I'll need to change, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thank you,
Angela
