Description

So in wordpress multisite, the forgotten password experience is a little weird. Take for example the following example from a standard sub domain install.

  1. User goes to the admin terminal for their site test.example.com/wp-login.php
  2. Clicks on forgotten password link. They are then taken to www.example.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

This is confusing, as the url has changed. The user may see this as a mistake or phishing attempt. This is then compounded if the site is using domain mapping. The user could be directed from www.mysite.com/wp-login.php www.anotheraite.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

The forgotten password should link to the current site url. i.e

test.example.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
