Thank you.
]]>My client is a thousand member organization, and most are logging in fine. So my problem is the lost password function. Your lost password JS form seems to work, but I don’t know how to configure a landing page or to configure the email function that sends the user the reset or existing password.
I’ve scoured WP for days. WP-Members didn’t suit me, so I ended up with another rather simple User management plugin.
Do I need customized code, or is there something I am overlooking?

instead of
https://www.mydomain.com/login?action=rp&key=9794abQM4XncUDiu4XcM&login=davidj
this is obviously causing issues with specifying a new password for users… is this a known issue, and if so, is there a fix?
thanks in advance!
]]>It’s driving me absolutely nuts!
Any ideas?
]]>I’ve been looking elsewhere but cannot find a solution for this specific situation in which the email after a ‘lost password’ action is not sent and I get the following error: “The e-mail could not be sent.
Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function…”. The thing is that I also have a form (using cForms) which does send out email correctly. I’m a little at a loss here. Oh; not unimportant: I’m currently using a setup with XAMPP on my windows machine.
Any input is appreciated. Tnx.

After several hours of 5-minute installing, and then troubleshooting, I was able to get set up!
I didn’t write down the crazy password, since I figured I was going to change it to something better anyway. Dashed off a quick first blog, no problem.
So then I had to close IE due to some glitch or the other.
When I got back to WP, I needed to log in again. Of course, I don’t know my crazy password.
So I click “Forgot password” and enter my email…. and I get this error:
The e-mail could not be sent.
Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function…
So now what? I can’t send myself my password, and I can’t log on to see why mail is disabled…
Am I dead in the water and need to reinstall?
Thanks!
]]>Is there another way to retrieve a lost password?
The mail() function has been disabled on the site by the computer people my employer goes through. The register function has also been disabled.
Thanks for any help
