Password reset

[catrancher]

I’ve setup a password reset page with the shortcode [user-meta type="profile" form="Change Password"]. The form only has one field on it. The password field. When a user tries to change their password, the correct form is displayed and they can enter the new password. However, when they submit the form, they receive the following error message:

You do not have permission to access user profile.

However, it appears that the password has successfully been reset. I have redirection in place for this user role and all redirects through User Meta Pro go the sites Home page.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Well, I’ve solved the problem. Seems the user has to have the role “add_users”. However, I’ve got to question if that’s the correct role in this case. While it’s not clear to me exactly what capability “add_users” provides, just from the name alone it sounds like it’s got more capability than I want my users to have. Maybe “edit_users” would be better?
