How do I configure the site so that if a user forgets there username and password they can retrieve them both with an email address? I can not find the setting for this, maybe I am too tired and dizzy from staring at the computer.

 

Thanks for you help

Todd

Todd,
By doing what you want, you have to have unique email addresses for every user, which makes sense if you think about it.

Out of the box, DNN is set up to allow duplicate email addresses across accounts.

There is a setting in the web.config to enable unique addresses as a requirement - look for "requiresUniqueEmail" setting in the "AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" area of the web.config.

By enabling it there, you'll see some additional options/settings displayed in the site settings area for the site.

HTH,
Eric

Thanks Eric,

That did the trick but now I have another question.

 If I wanted to edit the text instructions in the Retrieve Password section were can I find that information?

 Thanks for you help
