Link Forgot your password! to different location.

I have a custom site that uses the same username and password for several different applications. It all works pretty well except that ZenCart will send someone a new password and that causes problems in other areas.

I want to direct all "Forgot your Password!" requests to a central custom page that will reset passwords in several different applications. Currently clicking on "Forgot your Password!" directs users to index.php?main_page=password_forgotten. I want to change that link to my custom link but I can't find where the link is generated from.

Anyone know where this link is set?

Thanks

In the top of /includes/modules/pages/password_forgotten/header_php.php add a line to redirect to the other URL:

zen_redirect('http://other_url');

Re: Link Forgot your password! to different location.

Thanks for the reply. I set it up just like this and it didn't work. I put the file in the custom folder at password_forgotten/custom/

Is that the reason it did not work?

There's no such thing as a custom folder under password_forgotten. You'll need to edit the original file directly.

Thanks. That worked. Now on to other issues.
