Making generated passwords all numerical.
« on: February 07, 2004, 05:43:52 AM »		 Reply with quote
I have several complaints monthly that users' new passwords do not work. What happens is that instead of copying and pasting the password into the input field, they will try and type it all in. This causes "1" to be confused with "l" and "O" for "0" etc. Is there a way to make a mod that will cause all new generated passwords to be numbers, instead of the alpha-numerical deal it does now? Thanks in advance.

Actually, there is a mod in Completed Mods that does just this.

I did dozens of advanced searches and could not find any info on this mod. Do you happen to have it bookmarked or perhaps know of a certain search term I could use to find it? Thanks.

I didn't search for numeric. I used numerical. Does this search allow asterics?

[unknown] I have installed this mod and nothing changed.  I tried installing it twice and tested the password reminder as well as new generated passwords and they still came out in alpha-numerical format. Any suggestions? Thanks.

The problem, hmm I thought I posted this but I guess I didn't, is probably due to other mods you have installed.

Ok thanks, you're probably right. It's come to the point that no mods will install now without manually editing stuff. I guess after so many mods this is bound to happen.
