copied!<p>I am not so sure where you are stuck at. I can get the fact that you are creating a temporary flag for a user which you verify when the user clicks the link. So, that means, you can start with a session at that point, and the user can only reset the password, only if that particular session is active.</p> <p>After this step, you ask the user to input his new password, and since you have the temporary flag which you call as <code>$temp_pass</code> for the user (please take care that it should be unique), then you can get the user who is trying to reset the password.</p> <p>So, all you need to do is to run a db query of this kind -</p> <pre><code>$this->db->where('reset_pass', $temp_pass); $this->db->update('users', $data); // where $data will have the fields with values you are updating </code></pre> <hr> <h2>I guess you made an error</h2> <p>Also, I just noticed in your <code>recover_password()</code> function -</p> <pre><code>$message .= "<p><a href='".base_url()."main/reset_password/$temp_pass'>Click here </a>if you want to reset your password, if not, then ignore</p>"; </code></pre> <p>Shouldn't the above line be -</p> <pre><code>$message .= "<p><a href='".base_url()."main/reset_password/".$temp_pass."'>Click here </a>if you want to reset your password, if not, then ignore</p>"; </code></pre> <h2>Update</h2> <p>You can pass <code>$temp_pass</code> into the sessions and retrieve from there. That's one way to go about it.</p>
