Manually Set New User Password

Hello, I was wondering if you could recommend a way to manually set each new user's password. My users authenticate using a university authentication system passed through a single secret password, which I'd like to use as the password for each new users.

Would I manually add the password into userregistration.php somewhere?

Thanks for your time.

Hi Sojtech,

Updating the core probably isn't your best bet. Any changes you make will have to be reapplied every time you update the Add-on. Here is a snippet that will allow you to update the password using hooks so you won't have to worry about reapplying this fix when you update the plugin.

This would go in your theme's functions.php.
