Reset Password Not Working

    Hi Kevin

    I’m using the following code for my site.

    function my_forcelogin_bypass( $bypass, $visited_url ) {
  // Allow all single posts
  if ( is_single() ) {
    $bypass = true;
  }

  // Allow these absolute URLs
  $allowed = array(
    home_url( '/registration/' ),
	home_url( '/lostpassword/' ),
	home_url( '/resetpass/?' . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] ),
    home_url( '/resetpass.php?' . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] ),
  );
  if ( ! $bypass ) {
    $bypass = in_array( $visited_url, $allowed );
  }

  return $bypass;
}
add_filter( 'v_forcelogin_bypass', 'my_forcelogin_bypass', 10, 2 );

    I can get to the registration page with no problems. But when I request a password reset, the link I get from WP (https://web-url-here.com/resetpass/?key=CbefWxxFNCMzJcupFxkA&login=user-name) takes me back to the login page and doesn’t allow for the reset. What am I doing wrong?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi, thanks for using Force Login!

    First, I hope you realize you’re allowing all posts to be publicly accessible with the following lines of code:

    // Allow all single posts
if ( is_single() ) {
  $bypass = true;
}

    As for the registration page, this is difficult to troubleshoot since you’re using a custom registration URL and process. I recommend you find a better way to identify when the user is accessing a registration page to bypass it, instead of using the absolute URL method. For example:

    if ( is_page('registration') || is_page('resetpass') ) {
  $bypass = true;
}

    Good luck!

    Thanks Kevin. I removed the posts code (though we didn’t have any posts for people to access anyway). Thanks for the heads up. I switched over to the is_page and seems to be working better. Thank you for the quick reply.
