Bypassing standard frameworks

Bypassing standard frameworks: fine. Using "username" and "password" configs when framework uses "user" and "pass": There. Will. Be. Blood.

BTW, I was being a little sarcastic... In case ya'll missed it.

Yeah, cause in all of my worlds it is 'login' and 'passwd', like it should be. A user is a person or consumer of something, a user name is: "Bob Smith", but his login is part of the credentials used.

Which: one of my guys started using "Basic Auth" instead of some half backed cookie scheme of fake auth on a personal project. He finally admitted that it is easier and more secure.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
