设计密码恢复：未定义的方法“ reset_password_token”

Question

I have Devise 3.4.1. Everything works fine except password recovery. I open a page with password recovery, enter my email, click "Submit"... And get this error:

undefined method `reset_password_token=' for #<User:0x000000057c3af8>

I found the same question here - NoMethodError - undefined method `reset_password_token' for User:Class: - if I understood it correctly author suggest overriding one of Devise's methods, but I can't understand which method exactly needs to be overridden and most important - why. Why it just doesn't work out of the box.

Answer 1

I'm using Mongoid so I added this to User model:

  field :reset_password_token, type: String
  field :reset_password_sent_at, type: String

Now everything works fine. I didn't know I have to add those fields.
