Answer 3

Hello,

 After your signup send link with some encripted key and need the following steps.

 

Step 1. Need to generate secret key with some datetime (Date time which means 2 days)

 

step 2. Have to add 2 field . one for confirmation another one for forgot password "user". 

 

step 3. After click on the url , have to decrypt it and check the date validation and confirmation field in DB. If that field already confirmed or date expired throw the error.

 

While signup and forgot password have to store that secret key into db and validate while confirm and forgot password.

 

Once confirmed remove the key and update the needed fieds like "confirmed" as 0 => 1 , forgot pass "forgot pass" 1 => 0.

 

All the best..
