Obfucating Passwords in Client Area

[dordal]

If you've every wanted to obfuscate passwords in the Client Area (e.g. 'foobarbaz' => 'f*******z') I wrote up a solution tonight.

 

1) Upload the attached file to your '/libs/plugins/' directory, and rename it 'modifier.mask.php' (no quotes). This is a Smarty modifier function I wrote designed to mask passwords.

2) Everywhere you see a password display in the Client Area (e.g. clientareaproductdetails.tpl) change it: {$password} => {$password|mask}

 

Bingo! Now all your passwords will display as p******d instead of 'password'. If you want to give your users a little more of a hint, you can say {$password|mask:2} which will display two characters on each end: pa****rd

If you've every wanted to obfuscate passwords in the Client Area

- Where are they displayed in the client area?

[dordal]

On the account details screen, for one.

[RPS]

1) domain.com/whmcs

2) login

3) click "Client Area" on the client area home page that it brings me to by default

 

I don't see any passwords at all.

Here's what it looks like for me...

Dordal is referring to the client area as a whole, not just the client area dashboard.

 

Passwords for accounts are displayed on their respective details pages. ('View details' button next to each account in the 'hosting accounts' page)

('View details' button next to each account in the 'hosting accounts' page)

- There we go! At first glance I didn't see the password, because some clients were manually setup, so the cpanel password does not display since we didn't enter it. I checked the demo next, and in the demo, password is clearly displayed.

 

Is there another spot that displays the password?

 

Sorry, I'm pretty new to WHMCS, so I don't know where all of the passwords are shown. I've clicked around and didn't see anything.
