When using the 'db' authentication scheme it would be good to allow users to reset their passwords if they have forgotten them, and also for administrators to force a reset (perhaps by setting password_hash to NULL?).

Hi,
I have created some extra pages which sit in a directory placed in the MRBS directory. It allows for self registration. The person must verify their email by means of a link after which they can choose a password. The information is then saved to the MRBS Users table.
The pages allow the user to reset/change their password by the same process. They must verify themselves by clicking a link sent to their email address.
I must reiterate, these pages are entirely separate and don't look anything like MRBS however you could chnage them to match your theme as you see fit.
If you're interested I can message you the files.
Cheers

Maybe you could zip the files and make them available to all by attaching the zip to your post. There are 4 people who asked for that feature and probably many more interested. It may quickly be a pain in the neck to send the files to each individual.
Regards

Hi Treblig,
I'm not a programmer. I hacked something together to do what I needed. I'm happy to send it on but I need to rewrite it before posting publicly.
Once I have time to clean it up I will definately post it here for eveyone to use.
Until it's been cleaned up though, I'm happy to send it to you for testing and comment.
Cheers.

OK I understand the feeling, I'm not a programmer either.
I saw your PM. Thanks for your offer but I don't need it myself.
My comment in the forum was for making things easier for you and users of MRBS (and posterity because one's hard drive eventually fails or one doesn't use MRBS any longer and wipes all related files or email address becomes invalid, etc.)

Unzip the attachment to a subdirectory in your MRBS installation. (e.g. reset or register). Change the settings in config.php.
Post here or PM me if you have any issues.
The registration and reset functions assume the email address is unique for a user. I will need change the files to allow for more than one user per email address.

There's a now a "Lost your password?" link feature in the default branch. This allows users to reset their passwords. There isn't a feature for admins to force a reset, though setting password_hash to NULL would lock a user out of the system and force them to reset.
This feature will appear in the next release of MRBS after 1.9.0. In the meantime you can get it by following the Download Snapshot link on the default branch page.

Sorry. The anonymous post was me. I forgot to login.
Hi
These pages would interest me.
May it be possible to get the files ?
Thanks
