Why this plugin? I needed a simple way to make passwords less readable on screen so any people marching by won't read it easily. On the other hand, printed documentation should show the password perfectly. (I use DokuWiki in multiple companies for IT documentation).

Still: Password is NOT stored encrypted and is still readable. For important passwords, use sha1 encryption or at least Base64 obfuscation (nah, just don't do it). Have fun!

Installation

Search and install the plugin using the Extension Manager. Refer to Plugins on how to install plugins manually.

Examples/Usage

Copy to clipboard: just click on the icon next to the password!

Reveal password: just click and hold on password dots.

3 ways to use it:

  • click the lock icon in the editor toolbar to insert a placeholder (<pwd>Password</pwd>).
  • mark a text and click on the lock icon.
  • enter tags <pwd></pwd> manually.

Syntax

Basic syntax:

<pwd>secret Password displayed as dots</pwd>
