Methods

VerifyPassword (String) Method

VerifyPassword (String password)
Compare the submitted password with the user's saved password.
Parameters
Name Type
password String
Remarks
Login modules should use Nucleus.Core.UserManager.VerifyPassword rather than calling this function directly, because UserManager.VerifyPassword tracks login failures and manages account suspension. If the user 'secrets' record has a blank password or blank password hash algirithm, this function always returns false, because users without a password cannot login using the login module. Users can have no password if they are authenticated by a different method such as OAuth, or an Authenticator app.

SetPassword (String) Method

SetPassword (String newPassword)
Set the password for the user.
Parameters
Name Type
newPassword String
