Repopulate email and password fields when SN login fails
Last modified: 2009-10-05 14:33:44 UTC
During initial configuration, if the login credentials supplied for an existing SN account fail, redisplay the email address and the password (in plain text) when you send the user around again to 'Try Again'.
Matt will address this with a confirmation screen before submitting data to the server
That's not how to address this. It's a pain to reenter them if the login fails.
Can't replicate this at the moment due to new factory reset functionality, but I seem to remember this being fixed?
No, it's still the same. The new reset functionality doesn't keep you from testing this. You can still attempt to login to an existing account.
Reassigning to Andy, as this would be a SN change, though maybe there is no need to fix, since the user can hit back to correct, though they might not realize that. Andy, prehaps at least the username should be pre-populated on retry? It'd be a bit strange to also repopulate the password, in my opinion.

No, few people would realize this when there's a 'Try again' option. > Andy, prehaps at least the username should be pre-populated on retry? It'd be a > bit strange to also repopulate the password, in my opinion. It would only be strange if the password were hidden. With the password viewable in plain text, this isn't at all strange, and would save folks with long or random passwords a lot of pain.
