(WebUI) If the password is blank, then can the dialogue box be skipped?

Post by illumilore »

When webUI has no password set, would it be possible to just skip the dialogue box that asks for a password everytime* I access the webui? It seems like an unnecessary step.


*well, every morning at least

I think the best course of action would be to use something like tampermonkey/violentmonkey and just do the action of a 'tab + enter' which would select the "OK" button and enter automatically upon loading.

This is sort of a hack, but I've put a ticket on TRAC - which may be moving to github itself soon I believe, to disable password prompting when the address is local subnets.

We'll see how long that takes to be written, merged, and published though. I think I could look into it and get it in develop, but publishing is the real bottleneck currently as only Cas has access.

Can there simply not be an option in settings to disable the box based on user preference? There may still be reasons why users would want to keep the password prompt while on LAN.
