Vadrigar Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Hello all, I'm trying to login to PBEM++ using my Slitherine Account data. However, I have a pretty long, auto-generated PW stored inside a PW Manager. I tried to type it in two times, two times "invalid credentials". I'm a bit fed up about the fact that Copy & Paste does not work in the login dialogue. My PW about 25 chars and maybe I made a typo somewhere or mistook a 0 for an O, but this would be a moot if Copy & Paste would work as expected. I don't think I'am the only one using a PW manager with a long and complicated PW, so it would really be a quality of live improvement if Copy & Paste functionality could be added. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I second the motion. Otherwise everybody will replace secure passwords with insecure ones for their Matrix account. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratdeath Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Or at least make it so the password is saved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codreanu Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 +1 for this, also use a password manager and it's a pain to have to retype it in every time. This seems like such a basic feature to add that I'm amazed nobody testing it noticed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Joch Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) Actually we testers did notice and complained about it a lot, but problem is you are trying to graft a system, PBEM+++, onto the CM engine which was not designed that way ... so you have to use a lot of duct tape and cross your fingers . Hopefully, it will be improved, the team has been working on it a lot over the past few months.

Redwolf Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 If the GUI cannot do copy and paste then maybe an environment variable can be used. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFCElvis Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I'll ask how possible copy/paste is (UI is a squirrely place). They wanted the password field to display ***********s, not the characters being entered. 6 hours ago, Vadrigar said: I tried to type it in two times, two times "invalid credentials".

Also, there was period yesterday that the servers were down. If your password had been "cat" you would have gotten that message. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
