Change text in Forgot Password Email was created by ontarget
Hi I need to edit the following line in the forgot password email sent out to users.
"If you didn't ask for this, don't worry. You are seeing this message, not them. If this was an error just log in with your new password and then change your password to what you would like it to be"
I searched in the lang plugin override and the joomla lang overrid and in the CB configuration.
Cant find it.
Any pointers please

That string doesn't seam to exist in Joomla or CB. Where are you seeing it exactly? Seams like you already overrode a language string. I recommend reviewing your current language overrides.

Hi I definitely don't have it as an override.
Its the email that is sent by default when a user has forgotten their password.

The email sent by CB is as follows.

Key: UE_USERNAMEREMINDER_MSG
String:
Code:
Hello,\nA username reminder has been requested for your %s account.\n\nYour username is: %s\n\nTo log in to your account, click on the link below:\n%s\n\nThank you.\n

Key: UE_NEWPASS_MSG
String:
Code:
The user account %s has this email associated with it.\nA web user from %s has just requested that a new password be sent.\n\nYour New Password is: %s\n\nIf you didn\'t ask for this, don\'t worry. You are seeing this message, not them. If this was an error just log in with your new password and then change your password to what you would like it to be.

So yours has already been overridden or maybe translated if this is was originally in a different language. You can use the above language keys to override the forgot login emails though.

You can also completely turn off CBs forgot login process and use Joomla's. In the future CB won't provide forgot login anymore and will exclusively use Joomla's. To do so within CB > Configuration > General set "Forgot Login Method" to "Joomla".
