In my zeal to greatly increase security, I made the mistake of forgetting about users who are upgrading to ALS v0.03B Final from older version. As such, I apologize for any inconvenience I have caused. I have also released a version that does not make use of password salts, so you can safely upgrade to this version without any users facing problems logging in.

I am not thinking straight now, so I think I will end my post here.
Till next time,

I don’t really like to double post, but Wordpress leaves me with no choice. Their WYSIWYG always screws up my paragraphing, so I try not to edit my post. At least while I was using Safari 2, Wordpress automatically disables WYSIWYG mode. Oh well, if any of you guys know how to disable the WYSIWYG editor, kindly tell me.OK, I managed to turn it off. It was hidden under Users>User Profiles. Tricky.
Anyway, I have added a new feature to Advanced Login System. It is a password strength checker, similar to that of Google Signup. The code was kindly provided by Intelligent Web. Anyway, you can see it in the screenshot here:
I am also thinking of releasing nightly builds, especially since I am not sure when exactly I can release my next build. But that’s just a thought I am holding onto right now. If I do nightly releases, it will probably take a long time as I have to write documentation, upload an encoded version, and also send another version to those that paid for the source code. And this is a very time consuming process. But maybe I will try it out one of these days.
Anyway, I just upgraded to Wordpress 2.3.1. And I am going to test the tagging functions. 
Till next time,
cheers
