[Resolved] CRED auto-generating password for new user registration

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

The issue here is that when the user is adding a new user CRED form he is getting a message about an auto generated password.

Solution:

It seems that the password fields are missing hence why this message is appearing.

Add this to your form and it should allow your users to set their own passwords.

[cred_field field='user_pass' post='user' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
[cred_field field='user_pass2' post='user' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']

I am trying to: Create a registration form

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

I expected to see: the password enter by the user on the registration page

Instead, I got: a different password which was auto-generated

Hi Erwin,

It seems that the password fields are missing hence why this message is appearing.

Add this to your form and it should allow your users to set their own passwords.

[cred_field field='user_pass' post='user' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
[cred_field field='user_pass2' post='user' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
