Hi Charles
In the portal's admin-section i use ajaxscaffold
cch:
Ajax Scaffold is already deprecated in favour of ActiveScaffold
to manipulate the User list. When create a user and try to login with the same credentials to the portal, the login is not successful. When i tried to find out the reason, it seems the salt & salted_password fields in the 'user' table is not getting updated. I dont know what breaks in Login Engine for this strange behavior..!!
cch: I think you should look at acts_as_authenticated for a possible solution
