Hi All,

I am running into an issue with 'Password' plugin that I really desperate for a solution.  At this point of time I do not know if it's a bug or it's something I am doing wrong, I hope you could point me to the right direction.

I am currently using BlueHost as my hosting services, and after reading your installation instruction numerous times I installed Roundcube 5.2 on the server without a hitch.  I can send/receive emails perfectly. I can also able to turn on and make use of majority of the built-in plugins except the 'Password' is what I currently having trouble with.

My problem with the 'Password' plugin is that I enabled it, but whatever reason it's (the password tab) not visible within Roundcube, and I'm using Roundcube's default theme. I've read numerous forums, but most users having issue with is the communication configuration between the plugin and the database completely different than what I'm facing with; password form not even showing within Roundcube.

Could it be something on the server itself preventing plugin to work? Please HELP!

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone here in the community have similar experience? Or has anyone tested the plugin with the latest version of Roundcube?


I would appreciate if anyone could give me some leads.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks - rosali!

At least I now can rule out compatibility issue. However, it still kind of strange! When I setup Managesieve plugin the Tab and form showed up just fine, and for experiment purposes I went into Managesieve JS file make a few changes to fake it and turned the Password Tab and the form showed up.

Original JS code:
if (window.rcmail) {
  rcmail.addEventListener('init', function(evt) {

    var tab = $('<span>').attr('id', 'settingstabpluginmanagesieve').addClass('tablink');
    var button = $('<a>').attr('href', rcmail.env.comm_path+'&_action=plugin.managesieve')
      .attr('title', rcmail.gettext('managesieve.managefilters'))
      .html(rcmail.gettext('managesieve.filters'))
      .appendTo(tab);


Changed JS code:
if (window.rcmail) {
  rcmail.addEventListener('init', function(evt) {

    var tab = $('').attr('id', 'settingstabpluginpassword').addClass('tablink');
    var button = $('').attr('href', rcmail.env.comm_path+'&_action=plugin.password')
      .attr('title', rcmail.gettext('password'))
      .html(rcmail.gettext('password'))
      .appendTo(tab);


I have no clue what to make of the behavior. If anyone has any further leads I would appreciate it.

I have also found out that the plugin might not work with Bluehost because they store password on "shadow" file and not in Roundcube's database. Perhaps, I might have inherited their setting from using their Simplescripts for Roundcube's installation.

Thanks,
Eric
