Is there the facility to get or reset a user's lost password when email functions have been turned off?
I don't think that there's a facility to do this, however -
The user table in the database stores the MD5 hash of the password salted with the user id, if you can generate this hash value you can manually reset a password via an SQL update. It ain't pretty but failing all else...
Details of how the password is salted can be found in User.php
Hmm.. it might be more simple to just delete the user out of that table and create it again.
