Symptom
An administrator might want to hide the forgot password link from the log-in page to ensure that only Bamboo administrator can reset users password. This was tested in Bamboo 5.3 through Bamboo 7.2, and might not apply for newer versions.
Unsupported Resolution
Please apply the following configuration to your environment at your own risk.
- Make a copy of <BambooInstallDir>/atlassian-bamboo/login.ftl
- Look for a the two lines of code that looks like:
-
cancelUri='${req.contextPath}/forgotPassword.action' cancelSubmitKey='user.login.description'
-
- Remove the two lines above from the file. Make sure just the two lines are removed and no empty line is left in the file at that location.
- Restart Bamboo.
