NOTE: Using the Password Hint feature makes User accounts less secure so you should use caution if you enable this feature. You can disable this feature for all Users in the Site Settings. You can also disable the forgot Password link from all Login Pages in the Site Settings.
This Page Type is provided so that you can create your own custom Change Random Password Page. This Page Type is displayed immediately after a successful login has occurred using a temporary password. This Page prompts the User to enter a new password of their choosing. This practice keeps passwords secure since only the User knows what it is, passwords are never transmitted via e-mail, and passwords are encrypted when stored.
NOTE: The first Page of each of these Page Types that is found within your website will be displayed (be sure to place them all in a Public Folder). If any of these Pages are found missing from your website, a default page will be displayed for each Page Type so that your website will continue to function correctly, but no Page Style will be used (no branding). To create any of these Page Types, click on "Create Page". You should only have one Page with of each of these Page Types on your website.
