Password Reset Does Not Redirect After Successful Update

[Saumay-Gupta]

Describe the bug
After successfully resetting the password, the application does not redirect the user to the expected page. The URL remains unchanged even though the backend confirms that the password was updated successfully.

The issue was caused by an incorrect reducer case reference , preventing the state from updating.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to the Forgot Password page.
2. Enter a registered email address.
3. Click on the reset link (or manually open the reset URL).
4. Enter a new password.
5. Click Update Password.
6. Observe that the password updates successfully, but the page does not redirect.

Expected behavior
After successfully updating the password:

• The user should be redirected (e.g., to / or /password-reset-success)

Screenshots
-- Before updating the password !

-- After updating the password ! (the page not redirect)

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows
• Browser: Chrome
• Version: Latest

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Not tested on mobile devices.

Additional context
This issue did not produce console errors, making it a silent state
management bug. Debugging required inspecting Redux state updates
and verifying action type matching.

Status: Resolved #1425

The issue was resolved by adding a dedicated reducer case for actionTypes.RESET_PASSWORD_SUCCESS, ensuring the isSuccess state updates correctly after a successful password reset and allowing the navigation logic to execute as intended.

Navigation now works correctly after password reset.

"A pull request will be submitted with the proposed fix to ensure proper handling of the password reset success state and to prevent similar issues in the future."

fix(auth): resolve silent redirection bug after password reset

🐛 Problem

This PR fixes an issue where the application failed to redirect users to the dashboard after a successful password reset.

Although the password was successfully updated in the database, the UI remained stuck on the reset page without displaying any error message or feedback.

---

🔍 Technical Root Cause

The issue originated from a stale state transition in the Redux authentication flow.

1️⃣ Stale isSuccess Flag

The isSuccess state in the authReducer was not explicitly reset to false during the REQUEST_LOADING phase.

2️⃣ Effect Dependency Failure

In ResetPassword.jsx, the useEffect hook listens for changes in the isSuccess state to trigger:

navigate('/')

Fixed: Password Reset Redirect Bug

The issue was caused by a "stale" isSuccess flag in the Redux state that wasn't being cleared when a new request started. I have updated the auth reducer to reset this status during the loading phase and cleaned up redundant action types. This ensures the frontend correctly detects the completion of the password reset and triggers the automatic redirect to the home page.
