Topic: Forgotten password function

This function successfully sends an email with a replacement password... but it doesn't appear to change it in the database. The new password produces a 'wrong username/password' message; the old password works fine.

Re: Forgotten password function

You have to click the new password activation link in the e-mail that is sent out. Did you do that?

Re: Forgotten password function

Aaaah, I see. I understood that to mean "Once you have logged in with your new randomly-generated password, you can change it to something more memorable by clicking here."

I think I might change the text -- can you tell me which script it is stored in, please?

Again, I'm really delighted with this release. PunBB now does everything I want it to.
