Hi Martin,
you are correct. This is the one. I was so focused on throtteling that I did not see the obvious.
Thanks a ton!
Cheers, Karsten

The variable says it controls "password attempts", which i understand as "login attempts". Try $wgPasswordReminderResendTime instead, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgPasswordReminderResendTime.

Hi at all, whenever I try to re-request a password MediaWiki tells me that I have to wait another 24 hours until I can do this. My understanding is that $wgPasswordAttemptThrottle [0] is there to help be control this behaviour. No matter what I set to this parameter, even "false" I am still being asked to wait for 24 hours. I am using redis for caching. My theory is that you need memcached for this to work and if memcached is not present MediaWiki enforces a day, no matter what. Is this about right or is there something else at play? Bonus question: Is there a another way to change this 24 hours period? Probably not but hope dies last. :) Thanks for your time.
