Maybe the AppNitro guys have it on the TO-DO list.</p> <p>Thanks. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/login-page#post-21936 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 16:04:57 +0000 AMurray 21936@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I was thinking, may be it is as simple as making the field in the database itself an encrypted field (e.g, MD5 method) but I tried it and I can't apply the encryption to the field or form table structure for the particular field itself so that new entries have the password field encrypted when you view it in the Entries Manager.</p> <p>I can edit an existing record in phpMyAdmin, and set the field containing the "password" data to MD5, and save it, and that does encrypt the information but it is another matter to make Machform do that automatically. Some code would need to be written for that purpose and would also need to recognise first up when you choose to use the single text field as a password field.</p> <p>You can probably change the lot with SQL queries, but I don't know how that is done - not a SQL wiz.</p> <p>One thing you could do, is use an SSL connection so that at least any data transmitted form the form to DB is over a secure/encyrpted connection even if still saved as plain text in the db. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/login-page#post-21925 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 21:49:17 +0000 anujagrawal 21925@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Was the machform admin login screen also developed by machforms?</p> <p>I realize i can create a password field, but it doesn't appear to save that field as encrypted like the machform admin login password field does.</p> <p>Is this doable? </p>
