Number 1 fixed it. Thanks!!

How do you do the removal and reinstall without erasing events? Thais sounds like the same issue I am having.

I took a fresh look this morning and changed the PASSWORD_BCRYPT to PASSWORD_DEFAULT in an effort to figure out a different method of hashing passwords that would work. I then turned on ‘bcrypt’ in External Login and IT WORKED!!! :). No clue why PASSWORD_BCRYPT and External Login’s bcrypt were not playing nice.

I’m not sure it is as natural as the other features you added. Registration/Password Reset functionality would be a great tick box to turn on in External Login. It might make more sense to add functionality to an existing Reg/PW plugin that has hooks for this.

Thanks for the attention on the email. I have just been ignoring but it will be annoying when we go live.

I had this issue so I mapped the user and email together. This effectively made email the only option to login. I’m glad to see it will be addressed in the next release.

Have you looked at External Login? That is what I use to authenticate users that exist in a database that is not WP.

Will sending beer money get this moved up your list? ????

I have other parts of the site up and running great and I really could use this feature.

The password change/recovery functionality from an external database would be very helpful.

I too am looking for a way to add users to this same external database I auth against. The data source I am using has a back office interface so migrating users to WP Users won’t work. I can add users through the back office interface but I am looking for a way for users to add themselves. Everything I can find only seems to add users to WP Users.
