How to add options to send a verification code

it doesn't work 

Hi ma ouml

 

What happened?

 

Did you find any solution? If my answer worked for you, please mark it as "Accepted" and close this question.

UserID - id of user who needs to reset password

 

IsActive - boolean - set it to 1 when entering new request, set it to 0 when this record is used to reset password, check while reset request comes, if 0 then link was already used

 

when user wants to reset password, generate a guid and enter a record in above table, send email with link like http://yourwebsite.com/forgotpassword?requestid=3c158bcf-91cf-4a56-9b6d-488d123e4581

 

for asp.net this link can be a asmx handler, for mvc it can be a controller

 

then in that handler code write logic to fetch userid based on guid from query string, present user with web ui to reset password, change password in db, set this record's isactive to 0, you are done!
