forgotten your password in header

[Cornie]

Here's a simple template edit to provide better accessibility to the Forgot Password page.

Install:

Search in header-template


<li><a rel="help" href="faq.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:rawphrase help}</a></li>


add below

<li><a href="login.php?do=lostpw{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:rawphrase forgotten_your_password}</a></li>



That's all

When I add this code, it pushes parts of the log in box over my site logo. Any way to fix this? I tried to change the phrase to recover PW, but it did not help, just left a blank box.

Works great thanks... also I changed order of Register div block so that it was does not appear right of Help - simply search for Help and copy:

<vb:if condition="$show['registerbutton']">
<li><a href="register.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase register}</a></li>
</vb:if>

Search for Remember alter code to as shown below to comment out:

<!-- <div id="remember" class="remember">
<label for="cb_cookieuser_navbar"><input type="checkbox" name="cookieuser" value="1" id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" class="cb_cookieuser_navbar" accesskey="c" tabindex="103" /> {vb:rawphrase remember_me}</label>
</div> -->

Then copy the above code from <label> to </label> (all excluding Div open/close and comments) and paste it after:

<input type="submit" class="loginbutton" tabindex="104" value="{vb:rawphrase log_in}" title="{vb:rawphrase enter_username_to_login_or_register}" accesskey="s" />

and before:
</div>

Hope it helps!

Can anyone do me the favor and explain how he meant this (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1960606&postcount=10)

I have problems to understand this.

[impulsenine]

Very good suggestion; should be part of vBulletin by default. When we made the switch, there was a lot of fussing over people not figuring out how to go about resetting passwords. Pretty sure this'll stem that tide.

However I find replacing the facebook connect logo in your header with a much smaller one; does help clean up the header and improve load time.

Overwrite facebook_login.gif

I use this image

Works on FF, but not showing on IE?

[BasilFawlty]

Thank you thank you, a million times thank you! If I had a nickel for every time someone emailed me that they forgot their password I'd have a lot of nickels!! This little change will help put an end to that! (Should have been written that way in the first place IMHO). By the way, I did make one small change. Instead of placing the code you provided at the location you indicated, I put it just after the very last occurrence of </li> in the header template. Your way, the "Forgot Your Password?" shows up to the right of the login fields. My way it shows up to the left. Just a preference thing.

[CoZmicShReddeR]

Wow I never seen this one before just installed what a gift!;)

[paolpepas]

good, thanks :up:

[hoplomachus]

Nice work. Anyway of just renaming it to "Forgot Password"?

Each time i try to edit the text it disappears.

I tried to follow this in 4.2 PL3 and the instructions are unclear. What do you do with the code in the box? It says "Copy" but then does not say what to do with it. Thanks.

I tried this and it didn't work.

Also, some users told me the forgotten password message covers the login box and they cannot log onto the forum. I removed the extra line.
