 * As a wordpress user, we have account page where users can change their passwords.
   As ı also know if migration to auth0 is activated users will be created automaticly
   with their credentials in auth0 database when they login to side with their wordpress
   credential first time.
 * if user change the password from his account page this doesnt change auth0 user
   password.
 * So what will be the correct solution for making users change their passwords 
   inside their wordpress account page?
 * Kind Regards.

 * This was addressed in the last release, 3.8.0. I just walked through the process
   just now and everything works as expected.
 * Are you getting an error message or failed log entry?

 * Okay i checked it again.
    If i change user password from admin dashboard auth0
   also uses same password.It works. But if i change it from woocommerce user dashboard
   where users can change their password under edit account tab. It doesnt work.
   In this case user password succesfully changed in wordpress database but not 
   in auth0.

 * Thanks for the legwork here. So I’m clear, you’re saying that it does not change
   through the WooCommerce user dashboard (front end of the site) but it does change
   when edited through the profile or user edit in WP-admin?
 * I’ll test that out, should not be difficult to add that same logic to WooCommerce’s
   password processing.

 * Yes exactly. if you change from wp-admin auth0 gets exactly same password what
   you choose as a new password which means it works on both. but if you change 
   the password on woocommerce user account dashboard through front-end, auth0 doesnt
   recognise the new password.

 * Okay, I checked the 3.8.1 it works.
 * I changed existing user password from Woocommerce account page it changed.
    Logged
   out the user and try to login with auth0, there was no problem.
 * But; 🙂
 * When I was trying to change the password from front-end It gave old password 
   is not correct error notification all the time even with different users.
 * So it works but it gives error notification.

 * Other Issues with 3.8.1
 * I deleted all cache from browser then login to wp-admin, created a new user from
   admin dashboard, logout and clean all cache.
 * Tried to login with new test user with auth0 login by username and password. 
   It doesnt work. Gets in a infinite redirect loop in the end in chrome createds
   502 Bad Gateway nginx error. In IE stays in turning circle continue to login 
   process but nothing happens. Checked Auth0 dashboard. New user also created in
   Auth0 dashboard with Success Exchange log.
    Old user accounts are working and
   no problem to login. Plugin Error Log: 11/15/2018 04:00:30 WP_Auth0_Api_Change_Password::
   call 400 Error returned – PasswordStrengthError: Password is too weak 1 Changed
   password from wp-admin dashboard again for to fit what it needs. User still can’t
   enter to site. Then,
 * Created a new user with auth0 signup form. user created and added to Auth0 dashboard
   user list. But user cant login to wordpress.
    Closed browser cleared cached login
   by admin and checked user list. The user which created by auth0 signup form is
   already created in wordpress too. But that user couldnt enter the site. Cuase
   sign up form stucked.
 * 1)In the end. New users who are created from admin panel and also auth0 signup
   forms unable to login to site. So I even could not try to change their password
   from woocommerce acount page.
 * 2)Old users can login to site, they can change password from front-end but they
   get old password is not correct error notification even if password changed succesfuly.
 * 3) I need to downgrade back to 3.8.0 asap for users to create at least account.
   How to do that ? where can i get it?

 * Okay last thing i found that new user only can create account and login right
   now by creating their account on woocommerce checkout page.
 * Only in this case user can login with Auth0 and wordpress login forms. Others
   above cant login and create account with Auth0 and also cant login by ?wle it
   always give wrong passowrd or username error notification on auth0.

 * [@medyapin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/medyapin/) – This is a lot to
   get through all at once so let’s keep this thread focused on the password changing.
 * I just re-tested the password change on the front-end of the site in the WooCommerce
   My Account section and everything works as expected. Steps were:
 * 1. Created an admin account during the setup wizard
    2. Logged out and back in
   after setup to make sure everything was setup correctly 3. Went to the My Account
   in WooCommerce (/my-account/edit-account/) 4. Entered the current password and
   a new one; succeeded:

 * 5. Logged out, then back in with Auth0 and new password; succeeded
    6. Logged
   out, then back in with WP and new password; succeeded 7. Tried changing the password
   in the profile and repeated #5 and 6; succeeded
 * This is the same test I did before releasing but just wanted to double-check 
   and everything worked as expected.
 * The “old password is not correct” error comes from WooCommerce, not Auth0, so
   if you’re getting that then it’s likely that your old password is, in fact, incorrect.
   The password change process is stopped by Auth0 if it cannot change the password
   on our end so you should not have mis-matched data.
 * I’ll respond to the rest but if it remains a problem, I ask that you open a new
   thread so we can keep things focused. Thank you!

 * As long as you’ve got user migration on then that process should work. I just
   tested that out (create WP user, login with Auth0) with a public-facing site 
   and it all worked as expected. You can try doing the user creation the other 
   way, creating in Auth0 and then logging in to create the WP one.

 * I’m confused here … you’re saying that when you log in with a user that is not
   in Auth0 that it goes into a redirect loop? You should be stopped at the login
   form if it cannot find a user. The error log you pasted is for a password change
   so I might not be totally clear what you’re asking.

 * That’s definitely a problem but I’m not able to replicate it using the process
   you’re explaining. If you can open a new support thread for that, that would 
   be helpful. Make sure to include for each process that’s going wrong:
 * 1. Step-by-step what you did to reproduce
    2. The error message you see 3. The
   URL you ended up on 4. Any relevant entries in the error log
 * Thanks!
