Reset Password Bug: Patch and Fixed Files
After my last post on how to reset your WordPress password manually, people have asked for the patch and the changed files for the bug in 2.5.1. I’ve grabbed these files straight from Trac, so they should work (hopefully 
).
Most users will want the changed files zip. To use this, extract the archive into your wordpress directory and upload wp-login.php and pluggable.php.
For users who wish to use the patch, I’ll assume you know how to do that

Trackback at 10:38 pm on May 3rd, 2008This patch does not work for me.. what sould I do?
@Gigi: What do you mean by it “doesn’t work”?
I’m not having any luck with it either. It’s giving me the same key (including a ^) as it was before I uploaded the changed files, if that’s helpful.
Well, the patch is taken from the core WordPress patch, it *should* work.
Are you sure you’ve uploaded them correctly?
