    Hi,

    I created the form with ​contact ​and portal user entity. The option "Use Logged in User Contact id" is checked. I try to update the "las​t known password" by this form, but it just create new portal user instead of updat​ing the existed one.

    Is it possible to update the portal user by this way?

    Many thanks,
    Quang Anh

    Hello Quang,

    Since the 2nd form is not loading, it will always "Create" a new record and then re-associate that one to the existing contact.

    To make passwords editable in this way just use the built-in Sitefinity reset password functionality. In the latest version of The Portal Connector, passwords are only stored temporarily in Dynamics CRM anyways, they are wiped out once Sitefinity sets the password.

    Regards,
    Clinton
