Geometrix set password does not work on Author?

[asn11]

HI ,

I am trying to give reset password functionality on our site.

I tried OOTB form action from libs "/libs/foundation/components/account/actions/setpwd" .

I want to overlay this in my project app path.

Before doing that I tried using the geometrixx demo site's change password functionality on Author.

However it does not work properly, whichever user I use and try to change password I get success and then practically any random password works with that user.

Is it because I am trying on author?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

However

Any random password should not work !! Can you show us the snapshot of your code where you are changing the pwd ?
