Passwords for staff boards

(1/1)

FlowerTOPofPotFarmGifts:
As much as I LOVE THIS FORUM SOFTWARE.....I miss having a password option for specific boards.

I like having the security of the password for the staff for certain boards.  We also used it for contests:  Guess the Password.

Please consider this feature.

Edit by emanuele: all-caps is a bad thing

Arantor:
There is no need for passwords for staff boards. Just set the board up so only staff can see it then only people who are actually staff can get in. Much safer than a password.

I've seen forums screwed up because someone gave out the password intentionally. Doubtful that it'll be added to SMF for that reason.

Kindred:
besides that, I think there is (or was) a password protected board mod (and it's not all that popular because it's not needed)
