Web Africa, everything is broken

[guest2013-1]

Trying to login to the client area, nothing. Use an incorrect password on purpose, get an "incorrect password" error.

Tried logging a ticket on /support, "An error occurred". Type in the captcha incorrectly, shows me the captcha is incorrect. So it's definitely not me.

Tested this in IE and Chrome

I seem to have same issue in all browsers tested (IE, Chrome, FF)

:edit
Seems your login detail is sent as clear text (obviously detail swapped out)

All sorted

All sorted

Not really. Still being sent as clear text.

I bet you WA support is going to tell people there's nothing wrong on their end.

And not bothering with securing your login detail. I mean no one will ever bother with stealing your WA detail right.

How it should look (Afrihost)

How it shouldn't look (WebAfrica)

 

[WAJeff]

We're having a look at this, thanks.

Still no feed back Jeff...?

 

[WAJeff]

This should be sorted. Are any of you still experiencing issues logging in?

Still an insecure login:

Any plans on securing our login detail ?
