Dynamicweb supports this feature per default. Using the Login_se_password.html template from the Extranet template folder will provide the user with the option having his password sent to his email address.

Can you do this without the user beeing registerd in the extranet ?

I whant to use the simple password without any username that uses the login.html template in the password folder.

Is this not posible?

The password is found in the PagePassword field og the Page table. Just extract that and send it.

Does this involve doing some custom code?

If so can it be done without any custom code?

This is how it should work:

In my login.html template I create a link to another page whith the registry form for retreaving the password. The information should only be saved if the user chooses to subscribe to a newsletter.

How do I send the email to the user?

Yes, it involves custom code. You need to catch the event, that someone subscribes to a newsletter. No, there are no subscribers for that, but you could check if matching request valus are in the http header using a PageTemplateExtender or PageTitleProvider.

Dynamicweb does not provide functionality for coding a mail function. You'll have to code one. If you use ASPNet Email, you must obtain a license for that to the solution. Our license is only valid for the standard software.
