I've just completed a project by following the ToolSet complete tutorial for setting up a directory site.

Extremely helpful, btw. Thank you so much!

But there is one problem, and I don't know if there is a step missing from your tutorial, or I have missed something.

As per your instructions the "My Account" page isn't accessible by guest users (controlled by ToolSet Access).
Instead they get the alternative "login form" template (see screenshot).

PROBLEM IS, that this "login form" doesn't have a "Lost Password" link to "Set/Reset Password".

I've got a page setup already where they can submit their email address to request a new password, but it's not much use if users don't know how to find it from the Login screen.

Can you advise, please?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Have you checked the following Doc:
- https://toolset.com/course-lesson/creating-the-lost-password-page/

Please note that the lost password or reset password links will be displayed only on frontend when you are not logged in.

This is the key point.

The "My Account" login form is pre-configured by ToolSet.

So HOW can I add the "Reset your password" link to this form?

There is no template which I can edit to add this link, right?

See screenshot

Here is a sandbox site and you can auto-login to it using the following link:

Here is the account page you should check and see how its configured:

You can see how login form is configured here using the following content template:

And check how Reset and Lost Password pages are configured here:

Ah yes. Thank you.
The problem was that I was showing logged out users the login form.

What I NEEDED to do was create another Content Template (not assigned to any post type) and add the Login Form PLUS links to the "Lost Password?" page and the "Create an Account?" page.
