Problem/Motivation

Observed behavior

  • A user account's password has been marked as expired.
  • A different user with 'administer users' permission edits their account to change their password via the user edit form (editing nothing else).
  • The password is changed but the last password reset date and the expiry state isn't changed.

Expected behavior

  • A user account's password has been marked as expired.
  • A different user with 'administer users' permission edits their account to change their password via the user edit form (editing nothing else).
  • The password is changed andthe last password reset date and the expiry state are changed.

Proposed resolution

Change the conditional in _password_policy_user_profile_form_submit to also update the state of the two fields if editing another user. Note that the $current_pass variable will be NULL, which is why it's not working at the moment.

Remaining tasks

Decide if the 'Expected behavior' described above is correct.
