Hi,

I have an issue with forgot passord/login on a site

the links simply go nowhere - no error, just don't work.

site is here - http://pearsaa1.memset.net/~eventsgr/in ... taff-login

the code in the template is this -

Code: Select all

<!-- Login form template -->
 <font size="-2"/>
 {$startform}
 {if $error}
  {$error}<br>
 {/if}
  <p>{$prompt_username} {$input_username} {$prompt_password}<br/>
  {$input_password}
 {if isset($captcha)}
  {$captcha_title}: {$input_captcha}<br/>
  {$captcha}<br/>
 {/if}
  {if isset($input_rememberme)}
    {$input_rememberme} {$prompt_rememberme}<br/>
  {/if}
  <input type="submit" name="{$feuactionid}submit" value="{$mod->Lang('login')}"><br/>
  <a href="{$url_forgot}" title="{$mod->Lang('info_forgotpw')}">{$mod->Lang('forgotpw')}</a><br/>
  <a href="{$url_lostun}" title="{$mod->Lang('info_lostun')}">{$mod->Lang('lostusername')}</a></p>
{$endform}
  </font>
<!-- Login form template -->
Any idaes anyone?

Hi,
I'm no expert, but looking at the URLs for the forgotpw and lostusername links, I see they both have this in them: only_groups=staff_members

This doesn't seem right if they're supposed to be accessible *before* you log in.
Just a thought...

OK, my mistake, you've got a client login, too.

I know I'm 3 months late replying but I had this problem and it turned out to be because the form was trying to appear in the {content} tag which is obviosuly hidden as you're not logged in.

In FEU Management under PREFERENCES scroll way down to Redirection Settings where you need to add the page alias of the page where you'd like the forgotten password/user form to be placed. e.g forgotten-password.

Hope this helps or at least helps someone else who struggles with this in the future!  ;D
