You don't ask for a lot, Tim; you ask for what you want, and that's what's
important.  You keep on asking, and we'll keep adding your requests to our
"to discuss" list for V1.1, I assure you.

Rather than modifying user profiles every time they login, I'll give
everyone my logging and reporting module that I use.  It places such
statistics in a separate non-related table and has a corresponding set of
reports on website usage.  To log a page's requests you simply add a single
custom tag call to the top of that page.  To implement this solution, you
simpy run a database script, install a custom tag, install a directory
inside of admin/, and add a link to your admin navigation to the reports
page.

As for encrypting passwords, if we hashed them then we couldn't have the "I
forgot my password" feature.  If we encrypt and decrypt, then it's still
pretty useless security because once you mail it out to someone who forgot
it, it's basically at the same level of security as an unencrypted password
anyway.

If you have other thoughts along the lines of password protection then
please let's all discuss these.

Gosh I ask for allot.

store id the db user table -> IP address, last login date/time which could
be used for it's been 3 days since you last visited or some cool logic that
will show what has changed since last visit etc, oh ya and could be used for
security purposes.

Since I am already asking for some much can you encrypt the passwords in the
database?
