 * Hi
 * I am trying to use the forget password option but it seems not to work…
    No error
   shows up, no email is sent, it just redirects…
 * The login with the password forget is here:
    [http://mediathek.codoc.ch/](http://mediathek.codoc.ch/)
 * i used the shortcode: <?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[forgot-password]’); ?>
    i see
   that there is a function for it but it seems not to work.. Can you help me with
   this? Thanks in advance.
 * Best ragards

 * Hi Sascha,
 * We implemented a new forgot password procedure with version 1.26, would you mind
   giving that a try?

 * I can’t find any documentation of how to implement this forgot password feature,
   could you please explain how to do this?

 * Hi mattmuir,
 * What you would want to do is create a separate page with the forgot-password 
   shortcode, and then another page with the confirm-forgot-password shortcode on
   it.
 * For the forgot-password shortcode, you would then add an attribute “reset_email_url”
   with a value set to whatever URL yo’re using for the confirm-forgot-password 
   shortcode.

 * I don’t get the email through? This is how I’m writing the shortcode:
 * `[forgot-password reset_email_url="[url]"]`
 * Is this correct?

 * And you’ve replaced [url] with the correct one? Is the form displaying on the
   page?

 * Hi,
 * thx for your great plugin!
 * I have the same problem with the forget passw shortcode like the initiator of
   this post.
 * I have created, like you described, two seperate pages with forgot-password and
   confirm-forgot-password shortc.
 * Both seem to work properly. At least I see the forms when I load these sites 
   individually.
 * I have used the same code like matt above:
    [forgot-password reset_email_url=”[
   url]”]
 * the url for the confirm-forgot-password I insert is correct.
 * BUT when I use the forgot-password form, no email is send to the entered adress.
   the form answers with “For completing the password reset procedure, please follow
   the instructions in your email.”
 * thx for your help

 * Do you currently have all of the fields filled in on the e-mails tab? If you 
   try sending registration emails, do those send correctly?
