Redirecting the Lost Password URL to
mainmulitsitedomain.com/yourhideslug?action=lostpassword
did the trick for me, not very shiny but working
Thanks, did you need to add the redirect on each sub site individually?
Sorry, dumb question. I forgot the link is always the same. Redirect added at the main domain works fine.
The plugin should have a better, more elegant solution, but it works
Thanks
Anyone of you guys care to explain how this is done? Thanks.
I dropped this into the functions.php of my child theme
add_filter('lostpassword_url', 'wp_hijack_lostpassword');
function wp_hijack_lostpassword() {
return home_url('/yourhideslug?action=lostpassword');
}
Or, if you have a Redirect plugin just create a redirect on your main domain
example:
lost password link is
mainmulitsitedomain.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
go to:
mainmulitsitedomain.com/
install/activate redirect plugin
create redirect from
/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
to:
/yourhideslug?action=lostpassword
But the PHP route might be better
Thanks guys the php version works great.
However there is still the issue of submitting the actual request form on the password reset page as the form post to the following
/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
which generates 404
Has anyone tested submitting the form?
Can we also solve this via a filter?
*sadly*
The only workaround if found was to alter this line
<form name="lostpasswordform" id="lostpasswordform" action="<?php echo esc_url( network_site_url( 'wp-login.php?action=lostpassword', 'login_post' ) ); ?>" method="post">
and this one
<form name="resetpassform" id="resetpassform" action="<?php echo esc_url( network_site_url( 'wp-login.php?action=resetpass', 'login_post' ) ); ?>" method="post" autocomplete="off">
in the wp-login.php
I don’t like changing core files…
Four weeks ago @eteubert added a post elsewhere to his workaround to this problem. We’ve installed it and it’s working well so far:
