I wrote that classified module -- and I put that feature in there because I thought it would be educational for WebCat users to know that it is actually possible for their users to request their own password reminders ... and of course to take some of the workload off the website admin by allowing people to get their own passwords.But if it's more of a pain than it's worth, you can always just disable it.Or better yet, expand it by creating a new field in the db that stores a 1 or 0 to allow or disallow that feature on an individual basis. Then if a particular user disables it, you can make the results page NOT display the reminder link -- thus making it imposssible for others to generate password reminders.Then charge a fee for those who disable it and then later request that you manually send them their username/password ... :)Sincerely, Ken Grome 808-737-6499 WebDNA Solutions mailto:ken@webdna.net http://www.webdna.net Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
