I was rather dissatisfied with the forgotten password method, and after reviewing a few threads here about it, I decided to write my own "plugin". Here is what it does:<br /><br />1) Asks for the email you used to register<br />2) Emails you a URL that contains the username associated with the email and hash string.<br />3) You go to that URL, it validates the username/hash string.<br />4) Change the pass and get redirected to the login page.<br /><br />Quite simple to add...you can even add it and play with it without modifying your board.<br /><br />www.zophar.net/wwwthreads/password.phps<br />and<br />www.zophar.net/wwwthreads/languages/english/passlang.phps<br /><br />Stick them in your dirs (renaming to your php extension of course) and go to password.php...should work by itself.<br /><br />To integrate it, just remove the "Forgot password" thing and replace it with a link to the password.php.<br /><br />Any feedback is appreciated on this...I haven't received any of the previous 2 things I've posted (which is good I guess...no screw ups), but since this is my 2nd day running a modern version WWWThreads, I'm still not familiar with its routines. It's 3am here and I haven't had time to do sanity checks/security checks on it...so..caveat programmor.<br /><br />
