Is it possible to disable requesting a new password using the ‘Forgot your password’ feature for certain users?

Thanks

Regards

Hi John,

In the login page permissions are still not present since users aren`t logged to apply the permission. So filtering of users should be applied based on a preferred logic. It can be based on user IP, browser etc.
To do this map the template for the login form. Go to Administration->Settings->Advanced->Controls->ViewMap->create new.
Host:Telerik.Sitefinity.Security.Web.UI.LoginForm
Template: Put the relative path to your template file (~/Templates/LoginCustom.ascx)
The template markup is.

<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity" Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI"

TagPrefix="sitefinity" %>

Add custom logic that will filter the users based on IP/browser or else. You can hide the forgot your password link trough adding a property display: none to certain class in Css.

To disable the forget password link globally for all users use a modified backend theme. You can download the default backend theme Sitefinity uses from Sitefinity SDK. Modify Login.css like

.sfLoginForm .sfLoginHelp a, .sfLoginForm .sfLoginHelp a:link, .sfLoginForm .sfLoginHelp a:visited, .sfLoginForm .sfLoginHelp a:hover, .sfLoginForm .sfLoginHelp a:active

display: none;
