Add a Password never expires field for users to skip password expiration

Created on 2 February 2023, almost 2 years ago
Updated 7 April 2024, 9 months ago

Problem/Motivation

We need a new functionality: to be able to set some users to have their password never expire.
This way we can specify per user whether we want their password to expire or not.

Proposed resolution

We have created a new boolean field for the user entity: Password never expires.
If it's checked for a user, their password will never expire.
By default it is unchecked.

    I created a patch for it.

    I added uuid for field config files because, on an existing site with the already enabled module, the config import wants to overwrite (delete/create the field) the configs.

    Set version to 8.x-3.x-dev.
    Also tested on 4.x but there is no 4.x-dev branch.

    This is exactly the feature I was looking for. Thank you Kosa Ilma for the patch.
    Unfortunately, the patch did not work for my site (I'm using Password Policy 4.0.0 and Drupal 10.0.4) because the function drupal_get_path() was removed from D10. I change the function for the corresponding service to be compatible with D10.

    I also thought it could be nice if we have bulk actions to check/uncheck this field directly from the "People" view.

  • Hello everyone, I am currently using the Password Policy module version 4.0.0. By default, there is a field named "Password Expiration" on each user edit page, and this field is checked, meaning that passwords will expire for these users. Therefore, I believe there's no need to add a "Password never expires" field. Instead, I have implemented bulk actions to allow for the direct checking or unchecking of this field from the "People" view.

    Thanks to everyone for the work on this issue.

    I'm going through all the 8.x issues.

    As the 8.x is no longer supported, I'm postponing this issue for now and need feedback as to whether or not this issue is relevant to 4.0.x-dev.

    If it is, please reopen and change the version, make sure the issue summary is clear and complete, including steps to reproduce and UI screenshots, and reroll the patch. If it's not, please close.

    If there is no response to this in a month addressing the above, it can be closed.
