Hi,

 

Please add the following functionality to the Login function of Extranet:

 

- Display a message (not in a popupbox) in the webpage that username or password is wrong when an invalid user account/passwd is given

 

- Forgot password functionality could be nicer than the current one; a separate form where a user can enter either his username or e-mail address and a new generated password will be mailed to him/her

 

Kind Regards,

Emil

You can implement the first feature using this code in your login template:

 

<!--@If Defined(DW_extranet_error_dk)-->

The combinations of user name and password does not exist.

 

<!--@EndIf(DW_extranet_error_dk)-->

 

You could redirect the user to a page with an other security template and alter this template so it only contains the email field. Only thing missing then is the new password feature, but I guess that the end user will be just as happy by receiving his existing password:)

 

The next update contains an addition to the extensibility API allowing developers to catch both successful and unsuccessful login attempts and react according to that.
