Description

Currently that suggests other database Passwords, when setting up yet another wordpress blog.

In my opinion that textfield should either changed to a type="password" or autocomplete="off" should be added.

Will add patches for both asap.

  • Component changed from Administration to Upgrade/Install
  • Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 4.0

type="password" is a wontfix, see #3534, #5529, #22443, #25630.

autocomplete="off" makes sense to me.

Should we perhaps disable autocomplete for the whole form?

I think setup-config.php.patch​ is fine. Autocomplete is handy for the other fields on this form.

Remove autocomplete from the database password screen on setup-config.php. Props hebbet. Fixes #28585.
