Forgot Password Email

[Marion]

Hello,

I want to change the “forgot password” email to just include a link to the “update Profile” page, with a short sentence explaining they can change the password and log in. The client I have does not want any passwords sent via email. Can you help? thanks

A user won’t be able to use the update profile to update his password if he doesn’t have a password to log in. The profile update option is only available for logged in members. How else will the plugin know whose profile to update if it can’t identify the member? This is why a random password gets sent to the user that they can use to log in and then update the password to their liking.

Ok , thanks, that makes sense. But can I add a sentence into the generated email such as “this is an auto generated password.Please log in and update your password in your profile?”

Yeah sure… we will add a settings option in the future but for now do this following tweak:

Look for the following function in the “emember_ajax.php” file:

function wp_emem_send_mail()

You will need to modify the variable “$email_body” to add stuff to the email that gets sent out.
