New registered user is updated as a public user and not able to change password using forget passwor

stark g asked on March 20, 2019 04:49

Hi Team, I am facing this issue, when a new user is registered from the live site, the kentico is adding the user in the users list and updating the public user details with this new registered email id, So when the newly registered user tries to change password using forget password he was not able to do that, as his email id was set under the public user he was not able to change the password using forget password form. Can i fix that issue.

Why are they registering as the public user? Have you written code around the registration process?

No, I am using the alternative form from the ecommerce.customer and trying to validate the user and save the user.

Couple things you need to check:

  • Is the user enabled after registration?
  • Does the user have to validate the registration process by clicking a link in an email sent to them? Settings > Security & Membership > Registrations > Registration requires email confirmation
  • Does the site require an admin to approve the registration? Settings > Security & Membership > Registrations > Registration requires administrator's approval
  • Does the site require unique emails? Settings > Security & Membership > Registrations > Require unique user emails
  • Are there any errors in the Kentico event log?
