This hack allows you to set advanced rules for user passwords to increase member account security. You can enable/disable:
  • The password cant be same with username
  • The password cant be shorter than X characters
  • The password must include both numbers and letters
  • The password cant be all consecutive like 111111 or aaaaaa
  • The password cant be years (eg. birth years) or the character sets you banned like 'qwerty' or '0000'
individually. Advanced password rules apply to new registering members and existing members who change their passwords.

The hack is Admin CP integrated so you can configure its options inside your Admin CP. (See screenshots below) It's compatible with all VB versions I know, feel free to try..

I coded this hack as a part of my "Advanced Board Protection Hack" (not released yet), however it become too complex, so I seperated this and make it an independent hack.

Click INSTALL if you install the hack, thx.

Enjoy...

Brilliant

Just a Question : You know that characters like "11111111" cant be used...

How about a password of the format :

LLLnnNNN (LLL are different letters, nn is the same number, NNN are other numbers)

Would the two "nn" numbers be blocked if you are using the Consecutive feature? (i.e. abc11234)

Great hack, applying to localboard first and testing it to the max to see if it still has an easy of use for the end-user.

Nope it's not. Hack only stops (if set to do so) when all chars are same. So password "11111111" is not allowed while "111111110" or "011111111" or "111101111" are permitted..

@xiphoid: please return me your test results and some feedback. I have tested it in 3 different boards and using it in my real board without any problems but I can always use some feedback especially from power-users like yourself, thx

@rest: thx for the nice comments.. enjoy..
