README

This bundle offers a lost password function for the backend of the Contao CMS.

Features

Never send new passwords to your customers again if they have forgotten their old ones. :-)
After requesting a new password, a password reset link is sent to the user's email.
Select a mailer transport for outgoing mails in the settings.

Installation

Install the bundle via composer:

composer require heimrichhannot/contao-backend-lost-password-bundle

Customize

Use Notification center

You can use Notification Center to send the password request.

Important

Only notification center v1 is currently integrated. Working on support for notification center v2.

Warning

This will be changed before the first stable v2 release.

Create a notification of type User: Lost password with ##recipient_email## as recipient and content that contains ##link## (the link to the password reset page). You can use additional token: ##domain## and user data withing ##user_*##.
Set the id of the notification in your project configuration in huh_backend_lost_password.nc_notification.

# config/config.yml
huh_backend_lost_password:
    nc_notification: 5

Adjust the email's text

Hint: You can also set a notification center message by setting the id in your config.yml (see below).

Simply override the following $GLOBALS entries:

$GLOBALS['TL_LANG']['MSC']['backendLostPassword']['messageSubjectResetPassword']
$GLOBALS['TL_LANG']['MSC']['backendLostPassword']['messageBodyResetPassword']
