Cannot change password with TFA Enabled was created by sysopcrew
If Two-Factor Authentication has been enabled, we cannot change passwords through the Edit Your Profile tabs.

This error appears if TFA is configured: Password : Incorrect password, please try again.

Once the TFA configuration is disabled for that account, the password can then be changed.

When a user requests a new password from "Forgot Login?", I have an auto-action SET `requireReset` = 1 so they must change their password on the first login with that temp password. A user with TFA could not set a new password. We serendipitously found that having TFA enabled was the problem.

Is the password change trying to verify the current password on the change form by a means that requires the TFA code, but there's no field to put the current code in?

The nightly build resolved the problem.

What's the best Known Bugs list to look at? I tried searching the forum for this and didn't find #6666 in my search.

You can check for bugs/feature tickets on our forge below.

forge.joomlapolis.com/projects/cb/issues

Kunena doesn't like # in the search criteria so you can use 6666] usually to find the post attached to the ticket. We usually add the post link to the ticket on the forge as well.
