User Password / Links and Community
Greetings:

When I do a mass mailing to users to update their links (404 errors etc), is there a way to include their login password with the email that is sent? I tend to get a lot of users sending me email that they can't remember their password etc (very time consuming).

I have tried <%comm_password%> but that does not work.... <%comm_username%> doesn't work as well, but <%LinkOwner%> would seem to suffice.

Any ideas?


Regards,


Clint.

Hi,

comm_password is encrypted I believe, for security. The only way to "know" their password, is to reset it with a new random one (but I doubt too many people would appreciate that on your site) Unsure

Should have remembered that ... thanks. I think I just need my mailouts to have better instructions.
