Package hirondelle.predict.pub.resetpassword Description

Allow the user to reset their own password, without requiring them to enter the old password. Used when the user has forgotten their password.

When the user loses their password, they fill in two forms :

1. the first form allows the user to request an email. The email will include a special link carrying a one-time "nonce" value.
2. the link in the email points to a second form, which carrys along the nonce as a hidden value. This form is used to set the password to some new value, WITHOUT requiring entry of the old value.

This package handles step 2, while hirondelle.predict.pub.lostpassword handles step 1.
