Hi there, I am looking to implement a password recovery feature so users on my site can request a password when they forget theirs... My passwords are one way encrypted, using a sha1 hexdigest so currently users would only see a garbled string which is not their password. So - are there any tutorials that cover this as a walkthrough, so I can learn as I go? I''ve tried google, but there''s so many suggestions, it''s knowing which is the best etc... Also couldn''t see anything that covered that on Railscasts.com Any ideas? Many Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
