Hi, is there a way to create accounts so you can add more password reset options?
Like a security question, that allows you to send a new password to an email?
Or having a backup email attached to the account, like Gmail.

So you want users to fill a security question in order for the password to be send?

Or just changed.
If you've a Gmail account, if you enter the correct answer, you can change the password right there, without needing an email.

Was looking and am testing this:

If you dont know the email attached, if your account was hacked and the email changed, it's useless.

Probably you can write a plugin basing it off this one:

Sounds rather interesting, just don't have the time to do it my self. It is in my wish-list if that helps, it is a big one though.

Yea, 'cause I can code php

Then go for it

Oh sure, just for you I'll break my forum xDD

You should use a local environment when you are writing a plugin and you don't want to harm your forum.

Were you serious about you coding it? If not, I advice you to wait for somebody to write it or hire somebody to do it for you.

Yea, I can't code at all, and I'll be trying to replicate the gmail password recovery.

Then I suggest you to open a request thread to whether wait for somebody to write a plugin for free or hire somebody to do it for you.
