You mean you're storing the passwords as a hashed password in DNN? It should still work except for Admin and Host passwords as they aren't sent out for security reasons.

I'm in the same boat as well. Below is my setting: -

 

<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"
      type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider"
       connectionStringName="SiteSqlServer"
       enablePasswordRetrieval="false"
       enablePasswordReset="true"
       requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false"
       minRequiredPasswordLength="7"
       minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"
       requiresUniqueEmail="true"
       passwordformat="Hashed"
       applicationName="DotNetNuke"
       description="Stores and retrieves membership data from the local Microsoft SQL Server database" />

1.) When I set this to true
enablePasswordReset="true"
I cannot find the place for the user to reset the password.

2.) requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true"
registering page did not display the questions.

3.)  If I set it this way
      enablePasswordRetrieval="true"
       enablePasswordReset="true"
 Entire website down...

Need help... Thanks

Anyone been able to get this to work - although I wish I was wrong, I think that Reset Password to DNN only means that the admin can reset user passwords, NOT that the users can get their passwords reset.

I will attempt to look at this during this week if I can. If I can't then I'll try to remember to ask someone in the core exactly what the intention of resetPassword in the web.config is.

Yea this is my exact problem

Because I'm using Hashed I can't do password retrieval because "Hashed" means one direction so passwords can't be e-mail'd.

What I need is a forgot password process so they can just reset it. Which the .NET membership provider has built in but I can't see a way to build that into the login system...

Is there a way to have "Forgot password" just navigate them to a Reset Password feature instead of a password retrieval feature?
