Forgot password function not working in CodeIgniter

Load user model in auth controller. You can load it in constructor or in the function.

class Auth extends CI_Controller{function __construct(){    parent::__construct();    $this->load->model('user_model');  // load user model}public function forgot(){// your code}

In Function

class Auth extends CI_Controller{    public function forgot(){        $this->load->model('user_model'); // load user model        // your code    }

Not tested

You need to make sure that the user_model class is loaded from the controller. Like so:

class Auth extends CI_Controller {    function __construct() {        $this->load->model('user_model');    }}

And be sure that you have the spelling/capitalization correct in the model class.

class User_Model extends CI_Model {    // rest of code}

@frodo again.

First Error : in your controller code, you need to initialize model first than only you can use the model property.

public function forgot(){    // Changes required    $this->load->model('user_model');    $userInfo = $this->user_model->getUserInfoByEmail($clean);}

Second Error :

if($userInfo->status != $this->status[1]){       $this->session->set_flashdata('flash_message', 'Your account is not in approved status');      redirect(site_url().'auth/login');}

How you get the value of $this->status[1] variable. You can simply use if($userInfo->status != true).

Please change this code and let me know if you have any error.
