meteor sends a false generated link (#) by using "forgot your password" function

Question

I activate the function "forgot your password?" in meteor. I got an email from meteor in my Inbox to reset the password, everything is woking fine, but the problem is in the generated link, because i got # in the Link. (see the link among)

http://localhost:3000/#/reset-password/8DhEtotkn0A0EU-
kShhmB6llHlfXpXCXAIqNYvrsZzi

When i remove the # from the link above and copypaste the link in my browser, then it's working fine.

where comes # in the link? and how can i remove it in my meteor project to get a correctly link to rest password?

help is needed, thanks

You can change this using the Accounts.urls.resetPassword function

In your server/main.js file insert the following code:

Meteor.startup(function() {
    Accounts.urls.resetPassword = function(token) {
        return Meteor.absoluteUrl('reset-password/' + token);
    };
});

You can set whatever URL you want above.

Also you can add more info to customise the email if you want:

Meteor.startup(function() {
    Accounts.urls.resetPassword = function(token) {
        return Meteor.absoluteUrl('reset-password/' + token);
    };
    Accounts.emailTemplates.siteName = "Your Application Name";
    Accounts.emailTemplates.from = "Application Name <no-reply@yourdomain.com>";
});
