Is there anyway to control the members? IE temp or permanent banning of username/email address, perhaps the ability to change their password from the admin panel NOT the database (as I currently have to do).

It would be nice, but there seems to be absolutely no way to handle members on the site.

I know there are options to lock an account, or delete the account built into the view profile page.  Not sure if you can change the password from the edit link or not, my site is bridged so I can not check that.

Not that I've found, all I've found is activating an account, but I might not be looking in the right place.

You can change a member's password for them by editing their profile. Just fill in the new information, and send them an e-mail with the new password.

If they have their e-mail listed, they can just request a new password change though, and get it immediately.

You can lock accounts, and unlock them through the Admin Options on the profile as well.

Go to the person's profile. If you are an admin, there should be Admin Options links.

Admin Options: [Revoke Validation] [Edit] [Delete] [Lock Account] [Make User an Admin]

Click on edit.

Thats to edit the story though, not the member's details.
I have "Admin Options: [Edit] [Delete] [Featured]" on each story and nothing else.

What version are you running?  The links should be right there.

Maybe they don't have profile turned on. The profile has to be on in order to see the links on the profile maybe.

I went looking for this option and found it was turned off. Thank you!
