Hello Dev,
Today our leading topic is laravel custom forgot password example. step by step explain custom password reset laravel. This post will give you simple example of how to create custom forgot password in laravel. step by step explain laravel custom reset password email.
Laravel provide it’s own forget password functionality but if you want to create your custom forget password functionality then i will help to creating custom reset password function in php laravel. so basically, you can also create custom forget password with different models too.
you can easily create custom forget password with laravel 6, laravel 7, laravel 8, laravel 9 and laravel 10 version.
few days ago i posted Laravel Custom Login and Registration article, from there i will start implement custom reset password function. so let’s follow bellow step.
you can see bellow preview of pages:
Login Page:
Step 1: Install Laravel
first of all we need to get fresh Laravel 8 version application using bellow command, So open your terminal OR command prompt and run bellow command:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog
Step 2: Create “password_resets” table
basically, it will already created “password_resets” table migration but if it’s not created then you can create new migration as like bellow code:
Migration
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
class CreatePasswordResetsTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('password_resets', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->string('email')->index();
$table->string('token');
$table->timestamp('created_at')->nullable();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('password_resets');
}
}
Step 3: Create Route
In this is step we need to create custom route for forget and reset link. so open your routes/web.php file and add following route.
routes/web.php
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Controllers\Auth\ForgotPasswordController;
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/
Route::get('forget-password', [ForgotPasswordController::class, 'showForgetPasswordForm'])->name('forget.password.get');
Route::post('forget-password', [ForgotPasswordController::class, 'submitForgetPasswordForm'])->name('forget.password.post');
Route::get('reset-password/{token}', [ForgotPasswordController::class, 'showResetPasswordForm'])->name('reset.password.get');
Route::post('reset-password', [ForgotPasswordController::class, 'submitResetPasswordForm'])->name('reset.password.post');
Step 4: Create Controller
in this step, we need to create ForgotPasswordController and add following code on that file:
app/Http/Controllers/Auth/ForgotPasswordController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use DB;
use Carbon\Carbon;
use App\Models\User;
use Mail;
use Hash;
use Illuminate\Support\Str;
class ForgotPasswordController extends Controller
{
/**
* Write code on Method
*
* @return response()
*/
public function showForgetPasswordForm()
{
return view('auth.forgetPassword');
}
/**
* Write code on Method
*
* @return response()
*/
public function submitForgetPasswordForm(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'email' => 'required|email|exists:users',
]);
$token = Str::random(64);
DB::table('password_resets')->insert([
'email' => $request->email,
'token' => $token,
'created_at' => Carbon::now()
]);
Mail::send('email.forgetPassword', ['token' => $token], function($message) use($request){
$message->to($request->email);
$message->subject('Reset Password');
});
return back()->with('message', 'We have e-mailed your password reset link!');
}
/**
* Write code on Method
*
* @return response()
*/
public function showResetPasswordForm($token) {
return view('auth.forgetPasswordLink', ['token' => $token]);
}
/**
* Write code on Method
*
* @return response()
*/
public function submitResetPasswordForm(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'email' => 'required|email|exists:users',
'password' => 'required|string|min:6|confirmed',
'password_confirmation' => 'required'
]);
$updatePassword = DB::table('password_resets')
->where([
'email' => $request->email,
'token' => $request->token
])
->first();
if(!$updatePassword){
return back()->withInput()->with('error', 'Invalid token!');
}
$user = User::where('email', $request->email)
->update(['password' => Hash::make($request->password)]);
DB::table('password_resets')->where(['email'=> $request->email])->delete();
return redirect('/login')->with('message', 'Your password has been changed!');
}
}
Step 5: Email Configuration
in this step, we will add email configuration on env file, because we will send email to reset password link from controller:
.env
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp-mail.outlook.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=example@hotmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=123456789
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=example@hotmail.com
Step 6: Create Blade Files
here, we need to create blade files for layout, login, register and home page. so let’s create one by one files:
resources/views/layout.blade.php
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Laravel - ItSolutionStuff.com</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.3/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<style type="text/css">
@import url(https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Raleway:300,400,600);
body{
margin: 0;

font-weight: 400;
line-height: 1.6;
color: #212529;
text-align: left;
background-color: #f5f8fa;
}
.navbar-laravel
{
box-shadow: 0 2px 4px rgba(0,0,0,.04);
}
.navbar-brand , .nav-link, .my-form, .login-form
{
font-family: Raleway, sans-serif;
}
.my-form
{
padding-top: 1.5rem;
padding-bottom: 1.5rem;
}
.my-form .row
{
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0;
}
.login-form
{
padding-top: 1.5rem;
padding-bottom: 1.5rem;
}
.login-form .row
{
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
