The **resetPassword** screen appears after a user clicks a link in a reset password email. To reset their password, the user must enter a new password in the **Desired Password** and **Confirm Password** fields; as you might expect, those two fields must match exactly:

If the passwords *do* match and the user clicks **Update Password**, his or her password will be changed and the **resetPasswordSuccess** screen is displayed. After a few seconds, that screen is replaced by the **visitingMessage** screen.
