Hi folks,

is there anyway to create a new user account allowing them to define a password and not have to autogenerate the password?

thanks,
Brian

Hi Brian,

I don't think it's possible just modifying configuration options (I'm not a 100% sure) but it should be easy to do customizing the my_account portlet or creating your own registration portlet.

thanks Jorge. I'll do that. It would be nice as a configuration option for a future release though.

By default liferay will send an email with default password when an user is created,check Admin portlet.

If you need to create and login id and set temporary password that also is possible, just check the option (change password) this option will make the user to change password on first login.

This feature is as per liferay 4.0.0 - 4.2.1 I have not tried 4.3

In 4.3, have a look at the tab Password Policies in the Enterprise Admin portlet.
