Problem fixed, Please add to bug fixes (or modify what i've done below to 'correct programming syntax' if I've done a bodgy work around)

There is a problem with the template for the email that is being sent out;

here is lostpassword1.tpl for 2.2.3

[size=xx-small]
Hello {X_UNAME},

A web user from {IP} has just requested a new password for your account at {SITENAME}.
You can get your new password by clicking on the link below:

{NEWPWD_LINK}

If you didn't ask for this, don't worry. Just delete this Email.

-----------
{SITENAME} ({SITEURL})
webmaster
{ADMINMAIL}
[/size]

here is the email delivered

[size=xx-small]
Hello Dean Collins,

A web user from 68.174.172.170 has just requested a new password for your account at AussieNYmeetup.net.
You can get your new password by clicking on the link below:

/lostpass.php?email=dean@collins.net.pr&code=98064

If you didn't ask for this, don't worry. Just delete this Email.

-----------
AussieNYmeetup.net (/)
webmaster
dean@collins.net.pr
[/size]

So the two mistakes are that it should have site url and then newpwd_link

the second one is that my site thinks the {site url} is just a "/"

So I made the following changes

[size=xx-small]
lostpass1.tpl

changed to suit lost password link problems

In place of "{NEWPWD_LINK}"
added "http://www.{SITENAME}{NEWPWD_LINK}"
[/size]

Now my lostpass1.tpl looks like

[size=xx-small]
Hello {X_UNAME},

A web user from {IP} has just requested a new password for your account at {SITENAME}.
You can get your new password by clicking on the link below:

http://www.{SITENAME}{NEWPWD_LINK}

If you didn't ask for this, don't worry. Just delete this Email.

-----------
{SITENAME}
webmaster
{ADMINMAIL}
[/size]

and the email sent out looks like

[size=xx-small]
Hello Dean Collins,

I also modified lostpass2.tpl file as well
1) for user education about how to change password in "Extended Profiles"
2) to provide url for easy login

[size=xx-small]
Hello {X_UNAME},

A web user from {IP} has just requested that password be sent.
Here are your login details at {SITENAME}.

Username: {LOGINNAME}
New Password: {NEWPWD}

You can change it in the "Extended Profiles" section after you login athttp://www.{SITENAME}
If you didn't ask for this, don't worry. You are seeing this message, not 'them'. If this was an error, we are really sorry but please login with your new password.

-----------
{SITENAME}
webmaster
{ADMINMAIL}
[/size]

If there is something wrong with my suggestion can you let me know as this is my first ever open source bug fix :)

Cheers,
Dean

did this problem get fixed yet as it is causing problems for my users (FFS how dumb do you have to be to loose a password) inevitably they end up emailing me the password email and I just copy out the unique url onto the fqdn and click it myself but it should be an easy fix to solve this.

xoops gallery problem

xoops gallery is a great module and works perfectly for posting photos however I've noticed a small problem when posting comments about particular photos.

the comments appear fine but the persons id information (avatar etc) doesn't fit into the comments box (it actually underlays the comments box)

Should be an easy fix, you can see an example here
http://www.aussienymeetup.net/modules/xoopsgallery/view_photo.php?xoops_imageid=60&set_albumName=album02&id=DSCF0353

With my comment on the "then it hit me photo"

Well I've already cancelled my clicksor ads after only 1 day. I found that they were making highlight ads on text of my web page OUTSIDE OF THE BOX!!!

basically if someone wrote some text about New York the city in a fourm, New York would become a highlighted hyperlink and when your mouse hovered it would bring up a popover for the ad.

This is totally not what I signed up for and no indication that this was going to happen.

Not a company I would reccomend regardless of how much they were paying.

Thanks for the suggestion in the first place though.

wow now I get what cjay content is for after looking at that, it's just a way of having a heap of acccess to various pages.

ok you keep doing your book store and I'll play with the drop down menu, if I get stuck i might ask your advice.

I'll post here before I call it a night.

cool, I might try the java option first with the view to making it available to other webcam users.

thanks also for the cjay info though and no probs re frontpage I can fudge my way ever so non artistically there as well.

will go back that way if this java selection doesn't work.

lol - better go make a coffee might be a long but fun night.

no probs, I've installed cjay content and playing around with it now.

Not sure how this helps me with the selection drop down box though.

I'm assuming from what I've read that you build this else where using frontpage or similar then import it into cjay is that correct?

also is there a faq somewhere? apart from the cjay website which says it's no longer support and only has about 20 posts on it I cant find anything in the module itself.

BTW chtml works fine for me, this is what i display my google ads in.
