Login Signup

[trevorm]

Hello,

I am embarrassed to be back with another question in under 24 hours from the last one but can anyone explain why, when a user registering through the login signup tool enters a password (twice) yet the MySQL DB shows a completely different password made up of extensive alpha numeric components?

Thanks

For security reasons the password in encoded in the DB.

Ah OK

|Does that mean that when a user logs in that encoded field is decoded to test password?

I am having a few issues getting the login to work but I have not gone through your instructions fully yet. But can you just confirm that if no usernames or roles are added in the Protect Page tool that anyone will be allowed through provided their password is correct?

No, the entered password is also encoded and compared with hash from the database.
If you have used a strong password then it cannot be decoded.

But can you just confirm that if no usernames or roles are added in the Protect Page tool that anyone will be allowed through provided their password is correct?

If no users have been configured then no one can access the page.

Thanks for the clear answers - that explains a lot.

Very impressed with the speed you respond by the way, thank you.
