Frontend Reset Password lets your site users reset their lost or forgotten passwords in the frontend of your site. No more default WordPress reset form! Users fill in their username or email address and a reset password link is emailed to them. When they click this link they’ll be redirected to your site and asked for a new password. Everything is handled using default WordPress methods including security, so you don’t have to worry.
Frontend Reset Password is perfect for sites that have disabled access to the WordPress dashboard, or if you want to include a lost/reset password form on one of your custom site pages. It also works great with Easy Digital Downloads!
Any error messages display right on the form, including whether the username or email address is invalid.
The plugin works by hooking into the lostpassword_url WordPress filter, meaning compatibility with other plugins can be better maintained.
Frontend Reset Password is also translation ready.

Setup Guide
Quick Start:
1. Add the shortcode [reset_password] to any page.
2. Visit Settings > Frontend Reset Password in your WordPress admin to select your reset page and configure options.
3. (Optional) Customize form text, password requirements, and email templates.
See the online documentation for screenshots and advanced usage.
Customisation
Customisation Features:
– Change all form text and labels
– Set password requirements (length, character types)
– Show/hide eye icon for password fields
– Customize email subject, sender, and template
– Display login link after password reset
Very little CSS styling is used, so the forms should style with your website theme beautifully.
If you use a frontend login page you can set that in the plugin also. Users are told they can login and are shown the url when they successfully change their password.
You can also set the minimum number of characters required for a password. Default is 0.

The e-mail could not be sent: This happens when the wp_mail() function call fails. If you’re testing the plugin on a localhost and don’t use a local email server, this error will show.
Settings page dropdown shows 403 or “Failed to load resource” (Solid Security): If you use Solid Security (formerly iThemes Security) with “Restrict REST API” enabled, the page selector in settings can be blocked. This plugin automatically allows logged-in administrators to load the pages list for that dropdown only. Make sure you are logged in as an admin when opening the settings page. If the dropdown still fails, temporarily set Solid Security’s REST API access to “Default” under Security > Settings > Advanced, or check that your user has the “manage_options” capability.
See the FAQ section in our documentation for more common questions and solutions.
