"lost passwort" with LDAP makes no sense

Post by robin-masters »

Greetings,

whereas update from 2.8.26 to 2.9.0 LDAP dont work i make an update to 2.8.29 - now i have a question regarding lost Password.
As i said i use ldap authentication and so "lost Password" page and button makes no sense for me.
In the configuration is not a possibility to disable this function.

Where can i change the layout or the content of the lost password page? (want to write "Use your Windows Login credentials")

By the way i allready read that in 2.9.1 ldap works again but i prefere to use the 2.8.xx Version for now. ;-)

Hi,

you are right, never thought about that. I would suggest to add to confiugration flag to disable "recover password". What do you think?

Hm i think an extra flag in the configuration menue is not necessary because with activated ldap authentication the password reset has no function.
I think the function should be related to the ldap authentication.

By the way - pls give me a hint where i can manually change the content of the password reset page - because i would give the users the Information which credentials they need.

Okay in the "index.php" i changed the 'sendPassword' entry and delete the link to the password section.
The $PMF_LANG['lostPassword'] i changed in the language file to (use windows login credentials).

It`s okay but it`s realy a challenge to find out how phpmyfaq build it`s php sites together at least for a php noob ^^
