I have this method in user.rb that automatically converts password to SHA1 hash def password=(value) write_attribute("password", Digest::SHA1.hexdigest(value)) end but my user model validations dont seem to work properly..for example length_of and confirmation_of.. cause it gets SHA1 and stuff.. how do I keep it encrypted yet keep validations too? if I remove the above mentioned method, it works fine but I risk the password being naked :/ -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
