XEP-0077: Ability to change XMPP account password

[nodiscc]

Hello, I'd like my users to be able to change their XMPP passwords using converse.js. Is this already implemented/possible? AFAIK it depends on XEP-0077 which is already (partially?) implemented for in-band registration.

Any help is welcome

In-band-registration is already supported, as you know, but not yet the resettting of passwords.

It's something I'd like to add but there's no timeline or deadline for it.

This feature will require some UI changes. We'll need to add a way to let users configure their accounts.
I'm not yet exactly sure what's the best way of exposing this option. I'm thinking of adding a "configure" icon next to the "close" icon (similar to the configure icon of chat rooms) which will render a configuration form where users can do things like change their passwords.

XEP-0077 adds 3 available actions for the user: register, change password, and cancel account. I don't know if you want to add account cancellation, but even then it should fit in the main view (I'd keep account management next to roster management like this:)

On clicking the gear icon, unfold this:

Thanks, I really like your suggestion. It's simple and logically grouped.

I think I'll go with that.

I don't use the software anymore, cleaning up my issues list

Why close this if it's not fixed?

Would love to see this feature as well (at least pw change). Any chance this will come in the near future?
