This password reset tool is different from others in VSys Live: instead of sending a new password to the user, it sends only a reset code to the user's e-mail account on file, and the user is required to enter that code during the same login session (i.e. not leaving or reloading the page) that the reset was requested from. It is notably more secure in that:
"User ID" text |
Caption of the User ID field. |
[Send reset code] button |
Caption of the Send reset code button. |
If no account on file, do not indicate this to user |
For security reasons you may not want to tell the user that the user ID they've provided doesn't match one on file. Checking this box gives the user no feedback on the presence or absence of an account. |
Message to show if no account on file |
If If no account on file... isn't checked, and the user enters a User ID that's not valid, this message will be displayed. |
Password reset followup message |
After clicking Send reset code, this message is shown to the user. |
Password reset e-mail body |
