go to admin/languages
and search this
You requested to reset your password
copy and paste this code into the thml password mail

Dear {$username},

You requested to reset your password.

Follow this link <a href="{$resetUrl}">passwordreset</a> to change your password.

If the link doesn't work, please copy and paste this code into your browser.

{$requestUrl}

Then enter this code.

{$code}

If you didn't request password reset, please ignore this email.

Thank you, {$site_name}

now to get the code to work go to
ow_system_plugins/base/bol/user_reset_password_dao.php

At the end of the php file change this
$example->andFieldGreaterThan(self::EXPIRATION_TS, time());
to this
$example->andFieldGreaterThan(self::EXPIRATION_TS, time() + 3600);

the 3600 = 3600 seconds which = 1 hour
so in 1 hour the code will expire, change to more if needed

Or you sure if you change this code ,you can only click on link once and nobody else can also use it ,just a thought
