Title:
hyperlinks in language files are not rendered in forgotpassword.php
Status in Mahara:

Bug description:

----
We are on 16.10.2 and on forgotpass.php, hyperlinks do not get rendered from
the language files. That is, we get the error message of:
"The user you requested uses an external authentication method. <a
href="https://myportfolio.aut.ac.nz/contact.php";>Ask your
administrator</a> for help with changing your password. Or provide
another username or email address."
Which is the standard message however it is not hyperlinking the a tags. Is
this functioning as designed?

Robert's response:
Hi Jawyei
Normally when we display form errors we escape the string by default
as the error sometimes contains user entered information - this is
done for security reasons.
In this case the string is generated from values that are hard coded
within Mahara itself and so the escaping can be ignored.
The message is passed through $form->set_error() and this takes a
third parameter true/false in regards to escaping the string.
So adding 'false' to the end of line 114 in forgotpass.php should sort
the problem.
Do you want to give that a go and make a patch if it works?
Cheers
