wpForo account is the same WordPress user. Password is one and user is one. There is no separate user systems. The password reset URL is /wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

Hmm, good to know - thanks! However, it returns example.com/password-reset__trashed/ when I paste it in the browser (I guess I shoud not but just tried it :D). So, I entered "/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword" in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Members for

But again when I try changing the password in the account page (example.com/community/account/username) it says that the old password entered is wrong, when it isn't. 🙁

I think you've trashed your password resetting page. Navigate in Dashboard to Pages admin page, click on Trashed (x) link and restore if it's there.

You are right - I took it out. However that page was created by Ultimate Member, which I don't use (and it's password resets don't work too on our site neither from that page, nor from its account page). I tried again after I took it out and it doesn't work. Changed the link to its /password-reset/ slug and didn't work. Returned it back to /wp-login.php?action=lostpassword and again doesn't work. 🙁
