Is it possible to use the PasswordRecovery control to recover a password using the email address instead of the user name?
Ideally I'd like to have the PasswordRecovery control allow users to enter their email address instead of their user name and then proceed to answer the security question.
Is it possible for a user to recover their password by entering their e-mail address alone?
Right now I am using the PasswordRecovery control, and i have security questions disabled. So all the user has to do is put their User Name, and hit submit, then their password is e-mailed to them.
But, a lot of my users forget their User Name, so right below I have a User Name recover section. The user inputs their e-mail address, and their corresponding user name shows up.
I would like to simplify this and just require the user's e-mail address to provide them their user name AND password.
I have finally designed the school portal. I am having another challenge now. I have created the recover password page. But when it comes to clicking submit I recive error. How do code this so that the password will be sent to my members email.

View 1 RepliesBy default the Password Recovery control requires the username to send the user the login details. Is there any way I can configure it to work with either the log in name and email address or failing that just email address?

I have only put the recover password control on the web page I havn't added any formatting or code and all the other emails I have set to send work fine so can't see why the smtp setting would be wrong for this unless I need to add some code to my page.

View 2 RepliesI have been searching since some days for the best approach one can have in order to allow an authenticated user to change his/her email address.
This is the code I have but apparently it doesn't work and it doesnt even gives a error. The application seems to ignore it:
Change email address:
<asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><br />
<asp:Button ID="changemailbtn" runat="server" Text="Button" />
<asp:Label ID="lblErrors" runat="server" EnableViewState="False"

View 1 RepliesI have a PasswordRecovery control set up on an ascx control as shown below. In some cases users have gotten two emails with different passwords sent at the same time. They're insistent that they haven't hit the button twice. I am using the CSSFriendly adapters, so I can take that off and see if it corrects the problem. Otherwise I suppose I could put this on the aspx page rather than a control.
<asp:PasswordRecovery ID="PasswordRecovery1" runat="server"

View 6 RepliesI have a password recovery control on my login page. I want to have it send the user specified (and after question/answer filled out correctly) password in an email. I keep throwing an error though, saying that the SMTP needs authentication. I've used a lot of email capabilities in my application, but I set all the SmtpClient properties programmatically, so I never had to rely on system.net mailSettings section of the web.config file. But now I am relying on it, because I am not intercepting any events (unless that would be easiest) of the password recovery control. Here is my system.net excerpt from my web.config file:

What am I not doing here to specify SMTP authentication? Why am I throwing this error? I'm putting my credentials in there with username and password. Am I not configuring the PasswordRecovery control correctly?

I have a web page which is using PasswordRecovery control.
Its working fine but I have a scenario in which I have to disable Viewstate for the whole application.
Now after disabling viewstate when I visit the webpage I have noticed that PasswordRecovery controls is not working (Every times when I submit the default button to go to step 2, the postback occur but not moving to step 2).
how to make login control allow users to login by either username or email address
View 1 Repliesi have added login control provided with teh VS 2008 to the form, when i double click Login button of it, it creates the Click event,
what i want is to fetch the values in the boxes username and password, How do that? why i cannot access the id tag of the textboxes from the clickevent?
For reasons to long to go in to I have to change the behaviour/appearance of the Success page on our password recovery page.
We've been tasked with making the Success template identical to the UserName template i.e. with a label and text box for UserName and identical messages on both pages.
Basically our client wants no difference between successful password retireval and failure - the same message will display regardless e.g. "An email has been sent to <username> with your password."
Which reminds me - in the success/failure message they'd like the entered UserName to appear but I can only get it to appear if it's a valid username - if it's nonsense the UserName is blank.
I am using passwordrecovery control.
After entering username and keying enter key(from keyboard) it was not firing submitbutton_click event. So i have added defaultbutton property in the panel control, and it is working fine. And my problem here is..
Clicking on submit button it is showing security question. After answering the security question, i have to click on the submit button either by mouse click or tab enter.
What i need to do is.. after answering the security question, I should be able to hit enter key instead of mouse clicking on submit button.
