60-days force password change

[Mark96]

I am sure you can understand why we have forced the change after a set number of days, we could increase the days to say 365 days? It shouldn't be as annoying then.

or just leave it enabled as default (30 days) with an option to disable it if we get "brute forced" its our responsibility.

I've changed it to a year for now. A plugin must be created if we want users to enable/disable the feature, we'll implement it shortly.

Thanks

Nice one, thanks Hawk.

hey hawk
thanks m8
we will create same thread ya bump this thread again

[Jesse]

it really sucks
most of them are webmasters
and we know to keep password safe
i don't even change my mail passwords for years
this is some thing annoying
why forcing us to do things :-\

ps

i love KWWH very much

Well I gotta disagree here. Most of the KWWH users are hardly webmasters unless you count "uploaders," forum posters of Softaculous/Fantastico point and click blog installers as webmasters. They're new or lack webmaster/personal security/general know-how knowledge. Look around.

Not meaning to put anyone down. This isn't a bad thing. Everyone has to start somewhere.

I am sure you can understand why we have forced the change after a set number of days, we could increase the days to say 365 days? It shouldn't be as annoying then.

Might as well just disable it if it's set to once every 365 days.

It is better to keep it to 90/120 days. We have many people on here who cannot manage passwords well. And there is always the risk of compromised accounts - is this not the reason we enabled this feature?
