I posted a question about the "Forgotten Password" link resulting in an error. It appears to be broken on this site too. I can't log a help desk ticket as my account is messed up and have been unsuccessful in sending emails through to the site admin. Can someone take a look at this?

Thanks

I had this reported before and I believe it was only happening if you were using a custom view, such as the quick login from activesocial.com. Is that correct?

Just an FYI for others.

The AS login doesn't support Hashed passwords either. Only encrypted. From my testing.

Same with Q & A.

I've run a few tests, returning my site to the _activesocial theme, clearing the cache and recycling the application pool. The problem appears to be unaffected by returning to the original theme. This problem is occurring on your site, so that current users can't use the forgotten password feature. Is there any test I can perform that would clarify the problem? How do you deal with it here on your site?

Thanks

This is an issue with the [AS:CONTROL:PASSWORDREMINDER] token. To resolve it, go to /DesktopModules/ActiveSocial/config/tokens.config

Locate this line: token group="*" name="[AS:CONTROL:PASSWORDREMINDER]" ...etc

Inside that node change params='ctl=SendPassword'

to

params='ctl=SendPassword,returnurl=[SITEURL]'

then save the file and reload the page.

note: you can change the return url param to whatever you want, it does not have to be [SITEURL]

That did the trick. Thank you very much!

I would highly recommend using this [free] secure password recovery module from Mitch Sellers as a replacement to the core DNN recovery (which sends passwords in plain text and has no anti-automation)

You just need to link to it from your as login template.

Nice! I'll be looking into that. Thanks Steven.

Thanks Steven!

Had the same issue.
Thanks Ben. Fixed
