Hi,

I have this issue when I try to edit a user (in “Edit Current” and “Edit Single” mode) I can’t save the modifications unless I change the password.

When I try editing without changing the password, I get this message:  
“Password too short”.

So whenever a user want to update his user profile, he needs to change his password (or rewrite the old one). Has anyone had this problem?

This is fixed in 7.9.1
