Any way to block the incorrect password?

[ShujiYomo]

I want to know if there is any way to block an incorrect password from displaying. I know that the devs have been adamant that it's not a bug, but I have several users that log on from public computers, and don't want their passwords revealed if they type one character wrong.

I did the following on my board and it seemed to work. Open up LogInOut.php and find:

Code Select Expand

fatal_error("$txt[40] - $user: $attempt");
   else
   {
      $settings = mysql_fetch_row($request);
      if ($settings[0] != $passwrd)
         fatal_error("$txt[39] - $user: $attempt");
Then remove the $attempt part from the code, it will remove the password. If you want to remove both the username and password tried remove

Code Select Expand

- $user: $attempt from the code.

That's exactly what needs to be changed for the paranoid

Now, we haven't yet thought of how we can prevent people from snaggin your passwords in route from the browser to peoples server but we'll see what we can do

Thanks, guys ... I left for a day or three, and this thing fell to the third page.

BTW, I didn't think it was such a big deal, but apparently some people do.
