Quote:How to set up email for sending forgotten password and confirm email.
Every time i send reset forgotten password i get Unable to reset password. error.
Can you please help me how to set up this to work?

@Miha (Via email)

There are quite a few things that could be the problem.

Firstly, ensure that you have a mail server setup on your local environment, I personally use http://www.hmailserver.com/

From there, the flexi auth library uses Codeigniters own email library to send emails, so before trying to send an email using flexi auth, just try and send one from a standalone demo page.
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...email.html

If this does work, then you most likely have configured something wrong with the flexi auth library.
The email settings are defined via the flexi auth config file, you can read up on them @ http://haseydesign.com/flexi-auth/user_g...ail_config
Note that the ‘email_template_directory’ must be located within the CI ‘views’ directory.

Once you’ve check the settings, then (If you haven’t already) install the flexi auth demo that is included with the download.
Once installed, try and create a new user using your email address, the registration process should send an email to you.

I know that in some of my previous attempts, that although it would successfully send the email to me, my email provider would never receive or spam the email as it was coming from a localhost address.
So if things look like they’re working, but you’re just not getting the email, try another address with another provider (Gmail etc).
