Fixes #48022.

  • I read the Generative AI policy and my contribution is either not created with the help of AI or is compatible with the policy and GNU/GPL 2 or later.

Summary of Changes

This pull request removes the redundant view query parameter from the frontend Reset Password and Remind Username form action URLs.

The following files are updated:

  • components/com_users/tmpl/reset/default.php
  • components/com_users/tmpl/remind/default.php

The forms already render within the correct view, so including the view parameter in the form action is unnecessary. The generated form action now contains only the required task parameter while preserving the existing functionality.

Testing Instructions

  1. Open the frontend Reset Password page.
  2. Inspect the generated <form> element.
  3. Verify that the action attribute no longer contains the view parameter.
  4. Submit the form and confirm that the password reset request works as expected.
  5. Repeat the same steps for the Remind Username page.
  6. Verify that both forms submit successfully and no regressions are introduced.

Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request

The generated form action URLs include an unnecessary view query parameter, for example:

/reset?view=reset&task=reset.request
/remind?view=remind&task=remind.remind

These URLs create unnecessary URL variations even though the forms are already rendered within the correct view.

Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request

The generated form action URLs no longer include the redundant view query parameter. The forms continue to function correctly using only the required task parameter, resulting in cleaner URLs.
