Hi Imar,

I've implemented this once, for Infonavigator (https://crm.extranet.infonavigator.nl/Wachtwoord-opvragen.aspx), using the following form:

[form name="ExtUserForm" method="post" Action="Default.aspx?ID=232" onSubmit="return checkform();"]
[input type="hidden" name="ID" value="311"]
[input type="hidden" name="ForgotPassword" value="True"]
[input type="hidden" name="ForgotPasswordConfirm" value="Your password has been sent."]
Email: [input type="text" name="username" id="username"]
[input type="submit" class="buttonSubmit" value="Submit"]
[/form]

It seems at first that this is fairly the same approach as yours, except for some used hidden elements. I don't know if these elements are version specific or could actually cause the trouble you're experiencing. Maybe it has something to do with the uppercase 'U' in your username input field (although quit unlikely)...

Hi Tom,

Yes, that looks similar to mine.

If I copy all code use to send the password into my application, it all seems to work fine. So, stuff like Security.ForgotPassword seem to work fine.

It just doesn't send the e-mail, but I have no idea why....

Anyone any other suggestions? There's no log file (or at least that I can find), so I have no idea where to look or what to try next. I just spent two hours on this and I am getting a little bit frustrated about this.

Maybe a link to the documentation portal describing how to implement Forgot Password properly would be useful? ;-(

Hmmm, just got a reply from support. It seems to work if the Login code is in a template used to protect a page (e.g. Properties | Advanced | Permissions | Frontend settings, just as you pointed out, Tom.

There are days that I <3 Dynamicweb, and there are days that I don't..... Pffffff
