Extension talk:SecurePasswords

Why enforce a maximum length? If some cap is needed at all, it should at least be a lot longer than 30... --brion 19:53, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * The nature of the hashing/encryption method totally bloats the size of the hash. The maximum length was so that long passwords don't get truncated in the database... although with the schema change to MEDIUMBLOB that shouldn't be an issue anymore. I'll rm it. -- Skiz zerz  20:12, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Messages are not displayed properly
Hi, I just installed this extension and it seems to work since my attempts to set an invalid password are being blocked. However, the message which is supposed to give me a hint about the problem with the new password is not shown. Instead it get this: &lt;securepasswords-password&gt;. It would be cool to get a fix for this. Thanks and cheers --kgh 22:22, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I will look into this, sorry for the delayed reply. Out of curiosity, what version of MediaWiki are you using? -- Skiz zerz  13:22, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi Skizzerz, no problem at all. Take your time. I am using 1.16.0 and Monobook. Cheers --kgh 22:26, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi Skizzerz, I will upgrade to 1.17 soon and provide you with a note if this issue still persists. Cheers --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; 08:07, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Pspell not longer supported by PHP 5.3
Hi Skizzerz, on the page about Pspell somebody dropped a note that it is not longer supported by PHP 5.3+ and one should use Enchant Functions instead. I this something to worry about since 5.3+ is ante portas? Cheers --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; 08:11, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Safe to try?
I'd like to try this, but I don't want a messed up wiki if it doesn't work out. Is it safe to try? Can it be removed easily? Or, is it a "break it, you bought it" kind of thing, where once you install it, you need it forever? Badon 07:21, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
