Password Reminder - Change email column - php

Question

I'm trying to do a Password Reminder in Laravel 4
I've setup the Controller, But keep getting the error :
SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'email' in
'where clause' (SQL: select * from users where users.deleted_at
is null and email is null limit 1
This would be correct as my users' table has the column "user_email" not "email
Is their any particular way that I can change the query that Laravel runs, to a new / different where that says user_email instead of email.
My controller is as follows :
class RemindersController extends Controller {
/**
* Display the password reminder view.
*
* #return Response
*/
public function getRemind()
{
return View::make('users/password_remind');
}
/**
* Handle a POST request to remind a user of their password.
*
* #return Response
*/
public function postRemind()
{
switch ($response = Password::remind(Input::only('email')))
{
case Password::INVALID_USER:
return Redirect::back()
->with('error', Lang::get($response));
case Password::REMINDER_SENT:
return Redirect::back()
->with('status', Lang::get($response));
}
}
/**
* Display the password reset view for the given token.
*
* #param string $token
* #return Response
*/
public function getReset($token = null)
{
if (is_null($token)) App::abort(404);
return View::make('password.reset')->with('token', $token);
}
/**
* Handle a POST request to reset a user's password.
*
* #return Response
*/
public function postReset()
{
$credentials = Input::only(
'email',
'password',
'password_confirmation',
'token'
);
$response = Password::reset($credentials, function($user, $password)
{
$user->password = Hash::make($password);
$user->save();
});
switch ($response)
{
case Password::INVALID_PASSWORD:
case Password::INVALID_TOKEN:
case Password::INVALID_USER:
return Redirect::back()
->with('error', Lang::get($response));
case Password::PASSWORD_RESET:
return Redirect::to('/');
}
}
}
Users Model
<?php
use Illuminate\Auth\UserTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\UserInterface;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableInterface;
class User extends Eloquent implements UserInterface, RemindableInterface {
use UserTrait, RemindableTrait, SoftDeletingTrait;
/**
* The database table used by the model.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $table = 'users';
/**
* The attributes excluded from the model's JSON form.
*
* #var array
*/
protected $hidden = array('user_password', 'remember_token');
protected $dates = ['deleted_at'];
protected $primaryKey = "user_id";
protected $fillable = array('user_email');
public static $rules = array(
'user_firstname' => 'required|alpha',
'user_surname' => 'required|alpha',
'user_email' => 'required|email|unique:users',
'user_password' => 'required',
'user_telephone' => 'required|numeric'
);
/**
* Get the password for the user.
*
* #return string
*/
public function getAuthPassword()
{
return $this->user_password;
}
public function getEmail() {
return $this->user_email;
}
public function getReminderEmail() {
return $this->user_email;
}
public function getUserByEmail( $user_email )
{
return $this->where('user_email', '=', $user_email)->first();
}
}
and last but not least, My view :
{{ Form::open(array('url' => 'password/remind')) }}
#if (Session::has('error'))
<p style="color: red;">{{ Session::get('error') }}</p>
#elseif (Session::has('status'))
<p>{{ Session::get('status') }}</p>
#endif
<div class="form-group">
<label>Your Email Address</label>
<input name="user_email" type="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Your Email Address" data-error="Please enter your Email Address" value="{{{ Input::old('user_email') }}}" required>
<span class="glyphicon form-control-feedback" aria-hidden="true"></span>
<div class="help-block with-errors"></div>
</div><!-- /.form-group -->
<div class="text-center">
<button type="submit" class="cta">Reset Password</button>
</div><!-- /.text-center -->
{{ Form::close() }}
