I would like to have Administrators able to see & change a user's password via control panel.

Administrators can change it in versions BELOW 6.5. In 6.5 there is a mail password option which the admin can click.
It's not possible to see any passwords, they are encrypted with one-way MD5 encryption.

I do appreciate the encryption, but is it possible to include in the admin template (edit this user) a field where we can change the user's password to whatever we like? Many of our community members request a change of a forgotten password to something memorable and I would like to assign those passwords based on other passwords they might have, if preferred... this way I have a greater perceived sense of control. Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much, Josh... I really appreciate it and will give this a try. Btw, in that thread, someone mentioned they wanted to exclude moderators from having this ability. Do you by chance have an upgraded solution? This is not really an issue for our communty, but it does beg the question. Thx!
