How do I stop the frontend dashboard plugin from sending an instant password reset email the moment a user registers.
Now if that isn’t feasible, how can I atlease prevent the link from displaying the wordpress default password reset form . It gives away my site.

Secondly, the photo upload environment on mobile is also wordpress default, it just gives me away.

Hi enochdavid,

I don’t think after user register the reset email will trigger, because we haven’t code anything like that, the user registration works like the default WordPress registration. Please check if any other plugin is doing like that, if not, please share your website details.

Photo upload environment is default as WordPress, I can’t understand. Can you please elaborate more on this?

Sure, as soon as someone registers on site, he immediately gets an email asking them to set their password. Once clicked, it takes the newly registered person to the default wordpress password reset form to set a new password. (This exposes my new /wp-admin renamed custom name in the browser).

Now if the person decides to ignore the email to set a new password, they will not be able to login, despite having filled password in the register form.

Hi,

Am sorry, right now I can’t release a new fix release as am in intermediate of new features.

Can you please try changing a line of code in your website?

1. Please go to Admin dashboard | Plugins | Editor
2. At top right you can see Select plugin to edit => Please select the Frontend Dashboard and click select
3. Please go to this path => frontend | request | login | register.php
4. Please go to ~ line number 26
5. Change wp_send_new_user_notifications( $status); to wp_send_new_user_notifications( $status, ‘admin’ );
6. Click update file.

Please let me know if this works, if not please share your login credentials to support@buffercode.com let me check from my end 🙂

Nope, did not work and this is the sample of the message I wanna disable from ever arriving any emails…

Username: sampleuser

To set your password, visit the following address:
https://samplewebsite/my-custom-admin-url/somestrangetext

I did exactly as instructed and it didnt work, I still got that default wp reset password, temporarily disabled FED and used another membership plugin and no such thing occured.
