When a user wants to reset a password he can klick the lost password link on wp-login page which should go to

https://intern.lichtwert-fotografie.de/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword  

But on my site it goes to:

https://intern.lichtwert-fotografie.de/wp-login.php?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fintern.lichtwert-fotografie.de%2Fcommunity%3Fforo%3Dlostpassword&reauth=1

Do you have an idea, why that is? I have no access to .htaccess so I can not see what is in there....

 

Can I temporarily deactivate wpforo and reactivate it later without side effects?

In that case I could check if there is a relation to wpforo and if not I can contact the host admin.

Thanks and cheers, Dietmar

Okay, I could not wait.

When deactivating the wpforo plugin, the wp-login.php works fine.

Clicking lost password redirects to 
https://intern.lichtwert-fotografie.de/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

after reactivating the plugin it redirects to

https://intern.lichtwert-fotografie.de/wp-login.php?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fintern.lichtwert-fotografie.de%2Fcommunity%3Fforo%3Dlostpassword&reauth=1

Why is this?

https://intern.lichtwert-fotografie.de/community

is the forum URL, but what is 

https://intern.lichtwert-fotografie.de/community?foro=lostpassword&reauth=1

 

I am on Version 1.8.4 and  WP 5.5.3

Thanks and best regards, Dietmar

@swbastian,

Please navigate to the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Features admin page and check and make sure the following options are set NO and check again:

  • Replace Registration Page URL to Forum Registration Page URL
  • Replace Login Page URL to Forum Login Page URL
  • Replace Reset Password Page URL to Forum Reset Password Page URL

More info here: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/wpforo-settings/features/#url-replace

"Replace Reset Password Page URL to Forum Reset Password Page URL"  was set to YES
