On a personal note: This was something i never liked about this modification. If you are an admin on many forums, you might by mistake try the password for board A to login to board B. If they password used is sent to the admin of Board A, then he might be able to "guess" your admin login for Forum B. I always refused to be an admin on a board that had this modification installed.

PS Boofo know my opinion on this, we already discussed that many years ago.

gonna try this...hope its good and bring no problem...thanks for this bro... ;)

This hack has never brought anyone any problems. That is not what it is for. ;)

Ok so the password 'attempted' is sent to who???

So... do I edit ALL login.php files? I just edited the yoursite.com/login.php. Am I supposed to edit /modcp/login.php and /admincp/login.php?

Only edit the one file in your forums directory. The hack states only 1 file edit plus most hacks usually have the full path to any files needing editing.

Then... who receives the notification? :(

Interesting hack. If you use .htaccess to block AdminCP, does this do anything extra since the login.php is inside the forums directory?

Too bad that the plugin system requires vB to manage all these hooks.

Since vb is developed using svn and each line of code is probably logged somewhere, it would be so cool if they could come up with a way to dynamically create your own hooks with just vb file version and line number...I know, sounds really complicated but so is the hooks system ;)

The Admin receives the notification, but the password feature has been removed in this version as it wasn't worth the headache of listening to a few people complain about the so-called security issues.

Is it a good idea to just upload the new login.php here, so that others do not have to do the bit of editing the file?
