Problem: password reset is difficult

[jrwdunham]

Problem

It is difficult for users to reset their password if they have forgotten it. The current practice is for an admin to use the Dative GUI to manually reset the user's password and then communicate the new password to the non-admin user.

Acceptance Criteria

• Investigate what would be needed in order to support a "forgot passord?" interface.
  • The OLD currently stores user emails in the users table.
  • I do not know whether the OLD is currently able to send emails from its hosting environment. This would need to be investigated. Presumably the ability to send an email with a password reset link to the relevant user would be required here.
  • If a way forward for self-serve password reset can be discovered, create the appropriate tickets in the OLD (old-pyramid) and DativeRF to make that happen.
