    How to create 'Password recovery' for members.

    If a Members has forgotton their uersname or password, how can they make a request for this information. I would expect the member to be able to enter their email address and an email is automatically sent to them with their login details.

    I've seen a few posts on this but can't find anything that seems to give a definative answer. Does anyone know where I should look for a simple answer. I'm not a coder by the way, so please keep it simple.

    Umbraco uses the standard .Net membership controls so it shouldn't be too difficult to implement. You'll have to create a usercontrol which gets dropped onto a forgot password page and then does the work. Lee has this function on his nForum package which you could probably use or there's reference materials here.

    Hello Tom,

     

    Thanks for the quick reply. I can't say that I fully understand what to do but you have been most helpful in giving me a good starting point.

    Cheers
