 > Hi everyone,
 >
 > Why hasn't this been fixed in 5 years? (I'm on wordpress 4.9) I
 understand apparently this isn't a bug with wordpress, however if website
 customers cannot reset their password due to the code in the email sent by
 wordpress then that's a massive problem for businesses who use wordpress
 for their websites.
 >
 > I'm working on a large site and they are having roughly 5 customer
 complaints per week from those who have tried a password reset and there
 was no link in the email they received. That's not really something which
 we can just ignore because it apparently isn't a bug...
 >
 > As editing the core wordpress file wp-login.php is not an option (due to
 auto updates) I have written an override in the theme functions file:
 >
 > {{{#!php
 > <?php
 > //fix missing password reset link in emails
 > add_filter("retrieve_password_message", "custom_password_reset", 99, 4);
 >
 > function custom_password_reset($message, $key, $user_login, $user_data )
 {
 >
 >     $message = __('Someone has requested a password reset for the
 following account:') . "<br><br>";
 >     $message .= network_home_url( '/' ) . "<br><br>";
 >     $message .= sprintf(__('%s'), $user_data->user_email) . "<br><br>";
 >     $message .= __('If this was a mistake, just ignore this email and
 nothing will happen.') . "<br><br>";
 >     $message .= __('To reset your password use the link below:') .
 "<br><br>";
 >     $message .= "<a href=".network_site_url("wp-
 login.php?action=rp&key=$key&login=" . rawurlencode($user_login), 'login')
 .">Click here to reset your password</a><br><br>";
 >     $message .= "Or copy and paste this link into your
 browser:<br><br>".network_site_url("wp-
 login.php?action=rp&key=$key&login=" . rawurlencode($user_login),
 'login')."<br><br>";
 >
 >     return $message;
 > }
 > }}}
 >
 > The thing is that we should not have to use a plugin or write an
 override because the wordpress core files are not working as per the
 customers needs. The wordpress files should be correct for all customer
 email clients.
 >
 > PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE fix this in the core.
 >
 > Thank you very much,
