Question Ver 1.4.1, New User Questions

So problem one: how do I reset or reopen or reactivate the accounts deleted due no activity?
Problem two: How do I set another person (deceased) as the default user?
Problem three: I see that I did not have the email notification properly configured to receive a password reset option. I can see the data base using PHP My Admin. Is there a routine I can run to reset a password directly within the tables? It would be nice if the passwords were no encrypted...way to change that?
In other words - new user and could use a tad of assistance...tks.

found that the user accounts were disabled due no activity
What exactly do you mean by this? webtrees does not have such a feature.

It is an option on the family tree configuration page.

You can generate an encrypted password, and use PhpMyAdmin to store it.
Here's the encrypted form of "password"

Absolutely not

One point; and I will try to be a bit more specific...
Admin > Users > "Delete inactive users" > there displayed was my account and my bride's account - default month counter was set to 6. So I checked the block by each account and continued...and then both were no longer listed on that page. Now that page displays "Nothing found to cleanup". I suppose I am looking for a way to view users accounts displayed about like a system admin would be able to see in Active directory.
But thanks for the help...a lot to read and...learn here.

Just click the "Users" option in the admin menu. You'll get a list of users, and have the option to edit their details....

Hello Greg,
What about Administration -> Users -> Delete inactive users -> ?
EDIT : By the way, it is impossible to change and save the number of months of inactivity. I tried to set it at 1 month instead of 6 and it still keep 6. Why?

Sounds like a bug...

More strange, it works on my local Wamp [strike]mirror [/strike]copy but not on my webhost server!?!
EDIT: Is a user who has never logged in considered as inactive?
