Bug #5274
closed
services_dyndns_edit.php existing password is not loaded/saved when editing
100%
Description
Try to edit an existing Dynamic DNS entry.
In 2.2.* you can edit, change the description or other inconsequential filed and save. The current password is known and kept (without being displayed, of course).
In 2.3-ALPHA the password field comes up blank in the editor. If you change some other field (e.g. description) and press Save then you get a validation message to say password is required.
That is annoying - you have to find the password from somewhere and enter it. It is much easier if it is loaded in the background somewhere and re-saved... like in 2.2.*

Not sure if this should be a separate bug now, or when this came back, but this issue is present in 2.60 and 2.72.

I can't replicate any problem like that on a current version, it's probably something local or in your browser. This site is not for support or diagnostic discussion.

Ugh, yes, you are correct Jim, thanks! Password manager was autofilling the password field with who knows what.
Sorry for the noise.

No worries, there is a reason we cheekily refer to them as Password Manglers.
