GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 647912
Re-enable password hint feature
Last modified: 2021-06-09 16:29:49 UTC
I've added a password hint: how is it invoked? It will be referenced in a few of the user docs.
The gdm part is not implemented yet. See bug 643445
It's currently disabled in the Settings, as it's not implemented in gdm/gnome-shell. commit 726332c14f2ab7951c671570730a62ee90a8743b Author: Bastien Nocera <hadess@hadess.net> Date: Wed Feb 20 17:26:41 2013 +0100 user-accounts: Remove password hints feature from UI As those are not currently used in GDM. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643445
Created attachment 356605 [details] [review] user-accounts: Allow to set up a password reminder When setting up user password, allow to set up also a password reminder phrase, that can be used to remind the user what is the password.
Review of attachment 356605 [details] [review]: Is there any reason to use "Reminder" instead of "Hint"? "Hint" is also used in GDM patches and was used here earlier. I suppose that also some labels with description are needed. The changes need to be discussed with designers. The code looks good otherwise, however, still needs to wait for Bug 643445. ::: panels/user-accounts/data/account-dialog.ui @@ +448,3 @@ + <property name="can_focus">False</property> + <property name="xalign">1</property> + <property name="label" translatable="yes">Password _Reminder</property> Maybe just "Hint", "Reminder" would be enough here.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new bug report at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
