Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Yesterday at 04:02 PM
ErwinB Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Hello,I just have a suggestion about the password recovery feature. Actually, whan you want to get a new password, you're set as 'validating' and an e-mail is sent.The problem is: if the member who asked for a password recovery don't receive the mail or don't follow the instructions, he remain as validating. Actually w have something like 258 records in ibf_validating about this.So, I suggest, to keep this table clean and for security, to allow the admin to set a limit for the recovery. If the member don't follow the instructions after x days, the account is locked or put back as an active member, and the entry in ibf_validating deleted. Because actually, the admins aren't able to manage this validating case and they are password recovery links still active since a long time - which can be a risk if someone read the mail instead of the account owner.So I'd like to be able to set a limit to this, if nothing is done after X days, the recovery is cancelled and the validating deleted.

These virmins get into other peoples board and do stuffs that they have no right to do. Your feature is very useful and I hope it gets implemented. :)
