Hi Christian,
Our developers have looked into this issue a bit more.
It appears this is occurring when the user's password is updated. However, since we're seeing this on an imported user account, the password should technically never be updated.
There are two possible explanations to this, A) either the admin is changing the password for these (which is not likely but possible) or B) it could be the forgot password functionality that is contributing to the problem.
We allow a user to request resetting their password by either entering a username or the e-mail address. Because more than one account exists with that e-mail address (in this case the web user and the imported user), we're thinking that whichever one is found first is going to be the one that the e-mail is referencing.
Is it possible to get some examples of reset password e-mails from one of the students you've seen having this problem?
I know you've mentioned a few students who are having this problem so I'm hoping you may be able to contact one of these students and provide us with the original forgot password email.
The developers are indeed working on a fix for this as we speak but we'd really like to get a hold of a forgot password email just to confirm.
Please let me know if you are able to provide us with an example.
Thank you,
Bryon Kuehn

Hi, Bryon,
I'm wondering if you've heard anything about this.
Each day brings more emails from students saying the same thing: they can't see the Jayspace links.
When I look into the AG users, I find that the imported values have some website values, but the users haven't been merged (as we've seen elsewhere).
Please let me know something tomorrow.
(As you can imagine, this is extremely vexing as we continue to promote this function of the website to our admitted students. I'm beginning to wonder if doing so is really wise. The trouble we're having seems to reinforce the legitimacy of Mary's hesitance toward publicly launching the social networking part of the admitted student area. While I don't think students will yield or not based on their ability to create an online profile [I'm not that naïve], I do think that a big part of my job is to make online interactions with Creighton easier and more enjoyable. Right now, I feel like that part of my job is hampered by AG issues.)
Yours,
Christian

Hi Christian,
I'll take a look at this for you.
Would you like us to manually link the two accounts (website and imported) together for this user?
Let me know.
Thanks,

Hi, Bryon,
I realize that I've asked about a lot of issues in the last couple business days, but can I find out about this soon?
I've told Colleen that I'm looking into it, but I'd like to have some answer for her.
Yours,
Christian

Hi, Bryon,
I have been contacted by a student who has tried registering, but her information is not being matched with the imported information.
You can easily find her by email: colleen.patton@mac.com
At one point, she had registered six times, so she had six accounts. I deleted all of them, finally, and tried registering for her with the information we have in from the import, but that didn't work either.
Could you look into this and let me know why this isn't working?
Yours,
Christian
