Gallery password

Greetings,
I've just updated from 1.6.2 to 1.6.5. My zenphoto gallery has a global password, which until 1.6.2 requires no user id, but he password on the login screen. The user id field is now mandatory, only named users can login.

I figured out this was changed in 1.6.3 in class-authority.php. I've removed the required attribute from the user field for the moment to allow my guests to access the gallery again.

Are gallery passwords no longer supported or do I have to create a user for general access? My guests should only view my albums.

Regards Jan

    We generally don't remove anything without previous deprecation. And if we need to do for some technical/security reason or else the release posts will note that.

    Gallery passwords are still supported with or without a guest user name. Have you tried to disable the user name on Options > Security for guest login forms?

    For real user accounts the name and email field are now required though (since 1.6.3).
