Noticed that the database stores passwords in clear text, while great for the site owner to pull up the password in the event of catrostrophic user stupidity I have been reading at length about SHA1 and SALT value password hashing and was wondering if this was going to be looked into in a future release.

Hi Mark,

Yep this has been suggested before in the forums. I will certainly look at implementing this the only problem i can see is how existing users update. I may have to create a script that will convert a users existing members table. This is certainly on the wish list
