password reset w/o AuthenticationHelper.ForgottenEmailRequest (Kentico 11)

gregor von Venera asked on October 30, 2018 10:19

Hi all,

I would like to generate password reset url in webpart, but I would like to send it from external system, not Kentico. So I cannot use AuthenticationHelper.ForgottenEmailRequest.

I saw there is UserManager.GeneratePasswordResetTokenAsync, but thats for MVC development and I need something that works for portal dev.

Thank you, Grega

For portal normally it should be already done in one of web parts (Logon form web part already has it). I suggest you take a look at existing web parts (logon and registration web parts). They are in \CMS\CMSWebParts\Membership\Logon\ if you are looking for the code.

I guess what you are looking for is AuthenticationHelper.GetResetPasswordUrl

Thank you for you answer, but this doesn't seem to work. I get back url: http://localhost:8080/CMSModules/Membership/CMSPages/ResetPassword.aspx

It doesn't have any token to identify what user requested password reset.

And additional question: why is this page (.../CMSModules/Membership/CMSPages/ResetPassword.aspx) opened to public? It's styled like Kentico backend interface, yet it was accessible to me, even when I wasn't signed in as administrator.
