Hi,

This just recently happened to me as a result of losing my old C drive and I just wanted to see if anyone on the dev side is aware of what happens when a user loses their account info.

Let's say you're me and you lose your C drive and only have what LFS gave you in webmail. The sum total information you have after buying an S2 license is :

A username

A receipt number

If you visit the LFS front page and click 'login' - there is no 'failed' message and you are simply dumped back to the news page.

If you visit the forum and click to login - you are given a 'forgot your password?' message with a link to

https://www.lfsforum.net/login.php?do=lostpw

The page at this link says -

If you have forgotten your password (remember you can use your regular LFS web-login here), you can retrieve it via the following page : https://www.lfs.net/?page=loginretrieve

?page=loginretrieve will simply dump the user back to the front page news.

It was only when I visited the irc channel that Amp88 told me the real link to reset your account info is actually

https://www.lfs.net/?page=loginreset

Possibly it might be an idea to link that somewhat more prominently/correctly?

Many thanks for taking the time to inform us of this oversight.

I have adjusted one of the main culprits (the forum linking to the wrong page) and will have a look at your other notes very soon.
