Reset Password URL Setting in Forgot Password Email

On the login screen, you can click the 'Forgot Password' button, enter a username and submit. An email goes out to the user with directions for resetting their password.

Inside of this email there are links generated pointing directly to the page for resetting the password. However, the domain name in the URL is wrong.

On my development environment, the URL is set to dev.test.com/Special-Pages/Forgot-Password.aspx?hash=....

On the production version of the site, the same domain name is being set, but should be www.test.com/....

This functionality is not controlled through a web part. It comes with the default LogonForm code. I've traced through the code and checked high and low through CMSDesk and Site Manager and I can not figure out where this variable is being set.

Any help is much appreciated


Kentico Legend	Brenden Kehren - 1/14/2014 2:57:15 PM RE:Reset Password URL Setting in Forgot Password Email In the Site Manager>Settings>Security & Passwords>Passwords>Password reset, you can set the URL there for your reset password. You can do it globally and for each site by selecting the dropdown in the top left corner.


Member	justin-liquidprint - 1/14/2014 3:27:23 PM RE:Reset Password URL Setting in Forgot Password Email I've tried entering a value in here at both the Global and Site level. Neither of which is being picked up. Is an application restart necessary?

RE:Reset Password URL Setting in Forgot Password Email

Hello,

Would it be possible to confirm the exact hotfix for the instance in question? Also, have you tried specifying a URL under the Web Part Properties > Reset password page URL? If there is a value here, that is what will be used. If this is blank, the value in Site Manager will be used. See also similar post.

I will run some tests once I have the additional information and provide an update.

Best Regards,
Sandro
