Forgotten password (no edit)

Hi...I need help.

From your experience, is it possible to receive by email the forgotten password, without change it?

I mean: if a student user forgot its password, can he obtain it by email without the possibility of edit?


Thank you

No. not that I'm aware of, the password is encrypted therefore not even admin (well, without major hassle) tell you what a forgotten password is.

Ilaria, forgotten passwords works just like if you have forgotten password for your web based email. So in case of password recovery, student will be sent a temporary password to his/her email to log-in Moodle and from there student can change his/her password once again, but by no chance they will be getting exact same password that was on account before.
