      Web Portal: Hide Password Field

      How to Securely Hide the Password Field in Your Web Portal

      Issue:

      In certain scenarios, users may prefer a streamlined authentication process that focuses solely on validating their usernames, without requiring input or validation of passwords. This article explores how to configure such a setup, ensuring a seamless and efficient user experience.

      Resolution:

      To hide the password field in EveryonePrint login forms, do the following:

      1. Stop the EveryonePrint Web service
      2. Make a backup copy of <Program Files(x86)>\EveryonePrint\eop.xml
      3. Edit <Program Files(x86)>\EveryonePrint\eop.xml  in an editor such as Notepad
      4. Insert <loginhidepassword>true</loginhidepassword> anywhere between <settings> and </settings> similar to below:
         
        &lt;settings&gt;<strong>&lt;loginhidepassword&gt;true&lt;/loginhidepassword&gt;</strong>&lt;debugkeepfiles&gt;true&lt;/debugkeepfiles&gt;&lt;classid&gt;X+qYvgOs268Qs9uoCazcvhSn0awRpN6uA+OXphatrbMXp6rdCajf22fi298TrdLYZ6vbsxSv2NoWqancE7Pa2xXa298Q27izFa2o3RXb3KZ0&lt;/classid&gt;
      5. Save configuration file and re-start EveryonePrint Web service.

      The password field should now be hidden.
