What is ForgotPassword?
ForgotPassword is a simple Snippet that handles the form when a User has forgotten their password and needs to retrieve it.
Usage
To use the password retrieval functionality, first create the Resource the
user will log in to should they click on the confirmation email, and put
the ResetPassword snippet in. Tell it what Resource the Login snippet is
in - or where you'd like it to provide a link back to:
[[!ResetPassword? &loginResourceId=`72`]]
Then create another resource with the ForgotPassword snippet, and tell it
what Resource the Reset snippet is in:
[[!ForgotPassword? &resetResourceId=`123`]]
