If you use default mailing scripts available or using a CMS with members options, the forgot password functionality should be available, but if your using your own custom script, then you must get a coder or do it yourself by using default php mailing codes to pull db information on your current members rosters if your using one already. You can be more specific with your question if you provide a link to the site in question or some more info on what your trying to achieve...

  More to the point, how can I send the users login name when they select the forgot password option (forgot_password.php) ?

thanks

Designer, this is a specific question! you have to check where you post your answer first this forum is about the access_user class (maybe you will try)

Normally if the user has forgotten his login and or password the he need to know at least his e-mail address. If the user enter this e-mail address into the "forgotten password" form an email is send with a link to a page where the password can be renewd. The login name will show up ate the moment the user is recovering the password. A function where people can request the login / password data doesn't exists because the password is stored encoded only.

whoops my bad, I thought it was general Q...

Thank you Olaf!

We all must be tired here to miss the obvious. None of us noticed that feature.  Well done.
