    Have you tried registering a test user yourself and then trying to reset the password? In order to figure out what is going on, we need to know exactly what is happening.

    If I post CSS and you don't know where it goes, throw it into the additional.css template.

        *What* exactly doesn't work? You haven't told me what is happening. Are you not getting the page where you input the email? Are you not getting the email? Is the link in the email wrong? What *exactly* are you doing that isn't working???? You aren't telling me what is not working.

            So, everything works in the system - you can have a new password sent and you get the email with the new password. It is only when you go to use it that it doesn't work. Check your user database and make sure the salt field is char(30).

                          I'm having the same issue here. Can someone please explain A) how to reupload a profile.php file, B) why/how it would have been changed to cause this issue?

                          Thanks!!

                              Please start your own thread for your own issue. It's much easier for us to help you if there is one user with a problem in a thread.
