"Require Password Reset" - What controls redirection on login? Topic is solved

[ralphlorem]

Hi friends,

I was wondering if someone would be able to shed some light on what exactly controls the redirection that occurs when a user who is required to reset their password logs into a Joomla site.

Currently, if a user is required to reset their password, they are sent to index.php?option=com_users&view=profile&layout=edit.

I was looking into the com_users files but have not found anything that convinced me it managed this redirect.

Any ideas? Thank you

Hey ralphlorem,

The check for the reset status and the redirect to the profile page are done in \Joomla\CMS\Application\CMSApplication::checkUserRequireReset (libraries/src/Application/CMSApplication.php).
