    I am looking the location for the value of PASSWORDREMINDERURL, what is send in the email to for the password reset is wrong.

    We upgraded from a version that sent a reminder email and now it sends the reset link, the link is wrong.

    Any help would be appreciated.

      What part of the URL is incorrect, the protocol, domain or path? One thing you might want to check is if you have set the Registration Page in the Site Settings -> Site Behavior -> Default Pages section. It could be a page that is deleted and in the recycle bin or the page might be redirecting to the wrong location.

        It's also possible that the portal alias(es) are not properly configured.  Be sure only one of them are marked as the default AND that the DefaultAlias setting in the PortalSettings table also has the correct alias there.

          We recently upgraded from 6.x to 9.12. The previous version would send a reminder, now it sends the reset link.

          The site name in the link is correct, the page associated with the link is not. I believe its an old extension from a 3rd party that was removed during the upgrade.

          The link looks like this: https://www.ourtestsite.c...amp;resetToken=stuff

          I've hardcoded the link by making the static url to https://www.ourtestsite.com/Login.aspx?

          I'd like to know where the value for PASSWORDREMINDERURL is located and see about updating it.

          THanks

            Here it is in the source code:  

            https://github.com/dnnsof...ettings.cs#L613-L619

            It appears to just take the primary URL and append the registration page to it.

              I think "password reminders" was taken out a long time ago in lieu of user's resetting their own passwords via the "Forgot Password" option. The feature now sends a reset link so the user may reset their passwords themselves and no one other then the user needs to know their password.

                Ah, yeah... Was it fully removed, though?  Or was the default changed?  🤔
