Thanks! That address is incorrect.

The correct address is:
http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/...o=editpassword

I didn't find it in the database and the php code doesn't tell me how it's created. There's nothing online about this bug. I sent U2Lynne an email, but we go back to passwords not expiring in 30 hours, so the bug may stay as is.

Re: Mandatory password reset due to amount of spam

Mr. Clumpy,
Did you get the 404 link when visiting TTD or was it sent via email? We're trying to determine how it was generated.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Re: Mandatory password reset due to amount of spam

I’d love to see the exact message. Can you screen cap it or paste it here?

Re: Mandatory password reset due to amount of spam

I have changed the settings back to passwords not expiring. Hopefully the trick worked and we'll not see spam again (via that vector).

It made a huge difference in the amount of spam.

Re: Mandatory password reset due to amount of spam

I'm trying to log in on my other laptop and it's not letting me and it's not sending the password reset email, tried it twice, nothing

I reset your password and emailed it to you. I also included the working change password web page link.

The Admin control panel said his account was in the Users Awaiting Activation Email group. I changed it to the Registered Users group. Have your friend try to access the site now. I don't know why he would have been in that group, being a member since 2007.
