  1. Simple Password Reset is a module for Drupal 7.x which changes the user experience when resetting their password. Also setting the password the first time.
  2. Without this module, Drupal emails the user a link to a "one-time login" page. On that page, they click "Log in" and on the next page they may edit their password.
  3. With this module, Drupal emails a link and on that page the user may edit his/her password. That is, the "one-time login" page is skipped entirely.
  4. This is useful because it streamlines the process. Also, many users find the one-time login page confusing and unexpected. So not needing that is a good thing.
  5. The idea for this module comes from Dave Cohen, and is described in detail in his blog at http://www.dave-cohen.com/node/1000030.
  6. * Installation
  7. Enable the module as you would any other Drupal 7.x module.
  8. On install, this module will adjust its own weight to 1 (instead of 0). This is so our form_alter hooks act after system.module's. If for any reason your system.module (or, any module that alters the password form) has a weight higher than 0, you may want to manually change the weight of this module to be even higher.
  9. Recommended: Under Administration >> Configuration >> People >> Settings >> Password recovery, change the link emailed to the user to the following:
  10. [user:one-time-login-url]/brief
  11. By appending "/brief" the user is shown a minimal form to change the password, instead of the default profile edit form.
  12. * Issue Queue
  13. Please report problems, suggest improvements, etc on the project issue queue: https://drupal.org/project/issues/simple_pass_reset
  14. When submitting issues, a proper issue begins with the sentence "I read the README.txt."
