Hi

I am trying to get the forgot password functionality to work. However, I am unable to get it to work, when clicking the link I always get:

You don't have permission to access this area.

hmm anyone know what I am doing wrong here?

UPDATE: I changed my role for anonymous user to:
user password *

But what does it acutally mean? I do not find it very initutive?

Hi Tore,
I think the thing is that the system logs you in as the anonymous user, and to read from the role-tables again, you have to log in with another user and then log that user out again so that the anonymous user role settings will be loaded. I've had the same problems, and its a little weird, but it works.

And I agree, the user-role gui...its not very intuitive, and not even documented I believe...*sigh*

regards,
claÜs

You might also want to add forgotpassword to the omit list in site.ini.

[RoleSettings]
PolicyOmitList[]=user/forgotpassword
