I had the very same issue. I went to identity.mageia.org and clicked on the Forgot Password link. I provided my email address and received an email with a new temporary password. I clicked on the link to activate the temporary password, and it told me that it was successful. Then I tried to log in, and the password was rejected. I tried that twice. The links in the emails to activate turned out to be forum links.
After days of frustration, I clicked on the link in the Mageia Blog article to try again, which took me to identity.mageia.org, where I repeated my Reset request. However, the link I received in the email was a link to identity.mageia.org to a page to directly change my password there. That time it worked. The third time, I did not receive a temporary password, just a link back to identity.mageia.org to change my password there.
I don't know why the third try was different. Try starting from the link in the blog article.
