Forgotpassword: wrong url in reset password e-mail

Question

I have a forgotpassword form on my front-end. This works and generates reset password e-mails. But the reset url leads not to the front-end, but to the back-end.

What I've already tried to fix the problem:

• setpassword template on the front-end (setpassword.html)
• route setpassword to setpassword.html

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

I've found the problem: The test account had control panel privileges and was therefore redirected to the control panel set password page. This behaviour makes absolutely sense.

Try checking out this config setting http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/config-settings#setPasswordPath

Add your path in the craft/config/general.php

return array(
    'setPasswordPath' => 'login/set-password' // or wherever your template is
);
