Unable to change user password via admin panel

[v-w]

A user asked me to change their password, so I tried to do that via the User Manager. It doesn't work, and the error message is not specific enough for me to find out what the form wants of me.



There is no field named "field5" in the user manager, so I expect it's showing me the database key or something?

It's one of the custom profile fields set as required field.

As stated Field5 is a required field. You will need to fill it out as well in order to save the user profile.

I had a look at our database, the "userfield" table does not have a "field5" column, it ends at "field4". Which one of the 225 database tables to I need to hack to get rid of the requirement?

When you go to AdminCP > User Profile Fields > User Profile Field Manager, do you see field5?

You shouldn't hack any tables this is a great way to destroy your site and prevent it from working at all. The system only ships with 4 userfields. The others would be created in the AdminCP under User Profile Fields or through addons.

Thanks, I found it and got rid of it. It was originally an anti-spam question that was added for registration.
