<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Hi All – if I wanted to programmatically change a user’s password what would the best way of doing this? I’ve just been looking at the various Perl modules for our version of Koha
(16.11). modules such as C4:Members, C4:Member:Attributes etc, but cannot see any methods that can reset the password. Looking at the
<a href="http://opac-passwd.pl" target="_blank">opac-passwd.pl</a> CGI script which is called when changing a user password, I see that it uses a SQL update to change the password. Is this the best route to go if I wanted to change a password?<o:p></o:p></p>
