[Resolved] Custom URL for reset password is ignored
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
A custom URL for the forgot password shortcode set by the reset_password_url attribute is ignored, the reset password link goes to the standard WordPress URL.
Solution:
The shortcode had been pasted and the standard single quotes that wrap the reset_password_url attribute had been replaced by angled quotes, which broke the shortcode.
I took a look at your site. I found a reset password page, but the page you linked to above is the account page. If I visit that page when not logged in I see a page with 3 tabs (log-in tab, sign-up tab, reset password tab), but then when I edit that page in the back-end I don't see the same content in the accordions, so I think I have misunderstood something about how you have set this up, if you could please confirm.
and... as I can see now -- if u guest and can't login -- you can reset password in tab#3 -- I get email with STANDART link to wordpress password reset , but not the link which is in shortcode settings - reset_password_url=’hidden link.. and that is my question why - I need "my custom link from shortcode" been sent for user...
I did some testing locally, and I can now see that the issue is very simple.
Where you have inserted the forgot password shortcode the redirect url is wrapped in angled apostrophes and not simple single quotations marks.
You just need to edit the shortcode and use single quotations (or, better, use the Fields and Views button to insert it and it will add the correct quotation marks.
