Bug: SelfRegistration - Password Recovery

Post by spyro »

I have installed the SelfRegistration module which seems to work fine. Version 0.1.5. But the password recovery feature does not seem to work. I get the form  and enter the User Name but nothing happens when I submit. The page just remains the same and no email is received.

Any thoughts?

I will look at the code when I get a chance.

thx

The "Forgot Password" stuff is actually part of the FrontEndUsers module, and I reproduced the error your talking about, I'll check into it tonite.  I probably did something really dumb.

Okay, I managed to reproduce this, and then when I debugged it, I found that at least on my server, it was largely a user problem.

I did add an error message though (no release cut yet) to trap this in the future.

In essence, go back to your properties page, and see if the "type" of your email address field is set to "email address".  If it isn't, this is your problem.

Unfortunately to resolve it, you will have to assign all of the users in the groups that use that field to another group (one that doesn't use that property), then delete the group, turn that property off in the group, then change the property, and then reverse everything.
