Re^2: Priorities perhaps? (Password reset) by LanX (Saint) on Feb 02, 2024 at 13:50 UTC
I already have a secure perl cgi to request a password reset link mailed to a client. This could be adapted for the monastery. It's heavily tested and already ran for 8 years without issues. The problem is rather that pm-devs don't have access to all the code here, not speaking of the servers, the database or even having a test environment. Furthermore will the gods need to figure out what needs to be changed to run the monastery with encrypted passwords. There are also "keep-me-logged-in" cookies needed to be adapted. No idea what needs to be done here. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) see Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]

However, things change when we focus on solutions, not problems. It appears that we have two gods on board - the alter-egos of jdporter and Corion. With the enthusiasm and effort of a few pmdev's coupled with the power of a couple of gods, surely we can bring about this change...	[reply]

I'd love to see (and maybe even help) Lots of people would love to see this... Only a few can make it happen! It should be the top priority I agree it should be top priority. However, there are two reasons I didn't list it as #1 It doesn't improve the user experience (until there's a password breach) It is the furthest away away from my access and abilities within the PM ecosystem	[reply]
