    Reset password not working?

    In the default install, the login page has a forgotten password link which points to the root of the site with a filename of forgotpassword.aspx.

    Firstly, I can't see where to edit this page? Is it even handled by nForum?

    Secondly, it didn't work out of the box until I changed enablePasswordReset="false" to enablePasswordReset="true" in the Web.Config - where's the documentation?

    Thirdly, the page is throwing an error even after enabling passwords:

    Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    
    [NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]

    PLEASE HELP!

    I solved this by creating a new Document Type called Forgot Password, assigning that the Forgot Password template and creating a page under the Forum root. 

    That seems to work, but it'd be useful to have that in by default?

    I'm still facing the problem that I can't move this page (or login / register) below the Forum root as it throws an error?!
