• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

AutoComplete Attribute Not Disabled for Password in Form Based Authentication

Silver Pleskian
CentOS 6.5, Plesk 12.0.18#16

Would like to have the autocomplete disabled. Personal preference. :)

Martin Ottiger in thread http://forum.parallels.com/showthre...other-Plesk-annoyance!&highlight=autocomplete doesn't seem to work in 12 anymore.

ikaryn suggested in http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?210121-Saving-Login-Information&highlight=autocomplete a solution which is only for one session.

As far as I can find it seems hardcoded into the login_up.php3 file.
Is there a way to turn off the autocomplete somewhere permanently?

Contact the vendor to have the AutoComplete attribute disabled for the password field in all forms. The AutoComplete attribute should also be disabled for the user ID field.
