Forgot Password Server Calls #52

Open SeanMarcoux opened 8 years ago

SeanMarcoux commented 8 years ago

There are 2 server calls that must be implemented for this: 1) /forgot will receive a username and then send an email with a code to that user 2) /forgotpass will receive a username, code, and password. Will verify that this code is the one sent in the email to that user and will set the password to the new one the user sent

Okay so I researched password reset and I think its doable but due the to the peculiar architecture of our app it might get very tedious. The thing is that the password features were developed around the views and the routes being the principal mean of information exchange. Figuring out a way around this using ajax calls is going to take too long.

Thought ?

If it's not simple, then I wouldn't bother. What exactly is the issue, though?

Cavonte commented 8 years ago

To implement this I would need a reset and forgot password php page, that can call Laravel specific methods. It doable, but I would rather focus on something else.
