chiliondanforth Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Is there a way to disable a bunch of the security captcha, and the " cannot use first name in new password" ? Getting quite annoyed with the new password situation. If I forget my password I just need it to send me my password rather than make a new one.

Hello The password is not stored in plaintext for security reasons. Only the password hash is stored, encrypted with the "one-way" encryption algorithm. During the authorization proccess, hash of the entered password is compared with hash in the database. Accordingly, it is not possible to obtain the original password Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdanforth Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 He is not asking to access the original password. Instead to stop the captcha-like protection and the inability to EVER re-use a password. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check configuration value Settings->Configuration->My Store (insert into search field 2-step) -> 2-step backend authorization and set as FALSE or/and Managers->Members->(select your account)->Edit and set 2-step authorization override as Disabled or Global configuration Edited February 1 by dkodin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
