How to forbid changing password?

Yerikyy

Is it possible to set up users that can not change password themselves? This is useful for entry-level workers like who do assembling work, they often share a read only account.

First of all, thank you for this great product! I actually have the same request. We want to use your wiki for lecture notes for different courses that are not public. A group of students would get the same account to view a specific course. This saves time setting up accounts and group permissions. I hope our students don't change the password, but you never know. I guess this is a pretty specific use case...

Maybe you could add a change:password permission for the group permissions. Thank you!

a[href='/p'] {
display: none
}
You can still get to the profil via the url, but at least for my case that probably won't happen...

Felix Pollak: haha, well, Just hide it!

This would also be useful for our case, since the password system is handled elsewhere. At least being able to change where the link goes for forgot password would be great!

Dusty Eddy: If the password is handled elsewhere, why are you using local authentication at all then? You should be using a standard oauth implementation instead...

David Dearden

honestly, might as well disable auth at that point and allow read only access to anyone.

David Dearden: Well, these manual or tutorial materials are still should be kept inner the company. Thus access auth is needed.
