Yes, open /admin/view/template/setting/setting.tpl and find this code:

Code: Select all

<td><input type="text" name="config_smtp_password" value="<?php echo $config_smtp_password; ?>" /></td>
Replace with this:

Code: Select all

 <td><input name="config_smtp_password" type="password" value="<?php echo $config_smtp_password; ?>" /></td>

I hope it's okay to revive the topic. I also want the password hidden, and while type="password" visually hides it, one can still see the password if you inspect the code:

<input type="password" name="config_smtp_password" value="password-Will-Be-Displayed-Here">

How can this be avoided?
