So, in case someone hasn’t reported it yet; the “I forgot my password†functionality doesn’t work in 1.9.0.
It sends the email fine; but the password included in the email does not work.
Before I start going through the code can anyone explain how the passwords work?
So far I get:
- that the “hash†field is md5(“username†+ “passwordâ€Â)
- when I do the “forgot pw†thing it sets the “provpass†field with the pw sent in the email
- md5 of user+provpass though does NOT equal “hashâ€Â
I suspect code would be something like:
- if user logs in and there is a provpass set then validate against that password
- and then foprce user to change pass
- then use their new entered pass to make hash and delete provpass
Does this seem about right???
my bad...
after upgrading from 1.9rc3 to 1.9.0 i also copied over my custom templates - one of those was for the password reminder mail template which didnt have the new link back function which needs to be selected before new password is enabled.
