Frontend Reset Password

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 56% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price.

   Great little plugin that allows easy front end password resets for users while keeping them out of their backend profile page.

   Thanks, this is one of the easy to install and use plugins I ever saw. There is just one little tiny thing. The in the frontend used words: – Email Address or Username templates/lost_password_form.php:46 – New Password templates/lost_password_reset_form.php:42 – Re-enter Password templates/lost_password_reset_form.php:55 – Sorry, that key has expired. Please reset your password again. includes/somfrp-functions.php:536 – Sorry, that key does not appear to be valid. Please reset your password again. includes/somfrp-functions.php:540 Are not translateable in the plugin config form. You have to go into the code. Anyway thanks a lot for the plugin!

   I use elementor to help build out my registration/login flow, but creating a custom forgot password form without an elementor add-on or developer level knowledge is impossible (as far as I know)…. that is, until now. Thanks to this plugin, I don’t have to purchase an extra plugin or hire a developer. Before this plugin, I was considering using an elementor form + my CRM to handle passwords… but, I soon realized that was a bad idea… After all, who wants passwords to User accounts chilling in plain text etc. etc.? Not I. Thanks guys.
