Invalid password reset link
-
I created a custom template for the email sent to users after they are imported. I removed the text with the password and instead included this:
To maintain the security of your account, please create a new password here:
**woocommercepasswordreseturl**However, when I click on that link in the email sent to a test user, I am sent to:
https://basketsofafrica.com/wp/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword&error=invalidkey
with the alert:
“Your password reset link appears to be invalid. Please request a new link below.”
I thought this might be because I was already logged in to the site as an admin, so I cleared cookies in my browser (Chrome) and quit it before clicking the link in the email. But I still get the invalid key message above.
The same thing happens when I use **passwordreseturl** instead of the WooCommerce link.
Why is this happening?

Thanks for your quick reply. I’ve got it working now.
When it didn’t work with **passwordreseturl** I edited the email template to use **woocommercepasswordreseturl** instead.
Later I realized that I had to click the button “Load subject, content and attachment from this email template” in Import users/Mail Options AGAIN to use the updated version. (Suggestion: include a note to users to do this.)
Now the plugin is sending the correct link with the correct key. I haven’t tested it with **passwordreseturl** again, though.
