PowerCMSConnection.php adminpassword or other

Hi.
Question: if I use username "admin" in the powercmsconnection will there then be a security risk that people can see the admin password? Can people hack into the powercmsconnection.php file?


I have set up a site with powercms and other tables. Everything works fine. But for security reason i wonder how to use mysql priviliges and powercmsconnectioin. If i use an mysql admin user i can update insert and so for ex. for update user registration. But if i use powercmsconnection username as mysql quest where there are only view priviliges it does not function.

The Connection file is secure. a malicious user would need to gain access directly to the FTP server in order to see the information in the connection file, it cannot be read from a web browser.

Hi.
Am i allowed to change the powercmsconnection.php or do webassist another workaround?
By the way as an novice i find supersuite very intuitive and my acknodlege.

Thanks for reply and good to know the security.
Next is that admin users can not edit the admin_cms pages because $username_PowerCMSConnection="everbody";

you can change the connection settings by going to the Database tab (Window -> Database) and double clicking the powercmsconnection to open the connection settings screen.
