Ajax Submit Forgot Password Form Loaded in Front Page

Question

Firstly, I altered the Forgot Password Form in my template.php and added the #ajax property:

// Ajaxifying the form

    $form['actions']['submit']['#ajax'] = array(
      'callback' => 'themename_user_pass_form_ajax_callback',
      'wrapper' => 'user-pass',
      'method' => 'replace',
      'effect' => 'fade',
    );

Then I created the ajax callback function:

function themename_user_pass_form_ajax_callback($form, &$form_state){

  module_load_include('inc', 'user', 'user.pages');
  return $form;

}

The form works fine in /user/password page and the ajax works too.

I want the form to appear in the front page, So in my page--front.tpl.php I added the following:

<?php 
      module_load_include('inc', 'user', 'user.pages');
      $user_pass = drupal_get_form('user_pass');
      print drupal_render($user_pass);
 ?> 

The form appears and when submitting returns with js alert

An AJAX HTTP error occurred. HTTP Result Code: 500 Debugging information follows. Path: /system/ajax StatusText: Internal Server Error ResponseText: Memory used at: devel_boot()=3.43 MB, devel_shutdown()=32.2 MB, PHP peak=32.25 MB.

Note: The ResponseText is from devel.

In my php_error log file I found this:

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_pass_validate() in /www/drupal/includes/form.inc on line 1464

The user_pass_validate() is not declared maybe module_load_include('inc', 'user', 'user.pages'); is not working with the ajax call?

Answer 1

module_load_include() works slightly differently from your example. The first argument is the file extension, the second is the module name, and the third is the file name minus the extension.

This should work:

module_load_include('inc', 'user', 'user.pages');
