ngreenwood6 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I would like to create a password recovery to my login script. I just want the user to be able to change their password if they have forgotten it by entering their username and answering a security question that they set up. I just want it to erase their old password and set the new one. Any help or tutorials are appreciated.

ngreenwood6 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 Thanks for the tutorials, but I already have a login system and do not want to completely redo it. Also, I do not want to email the user a password. I want them to be able to change it if they can remember the security question answer. Anyone know how to pull the data from the database to allow it to be changed.

ngreenwood6 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 Well how would I incorporate the security question into it? I would like them to be able to select a question and then provide an answer. Then when they go to recover their password they have to put in their email address and their security question will pop up and once they enter the correct answer they can change their password.
