I am having a problem finding the best way to make a "before_save :encrypt_password" conditional. I have to at times update user model attributes but each time I do this the password is reencrypted because of the above.

I''m using Restful Authentication, and the code to create a user is pretty straight forward - there is a before_save action and a before_create action: before_save :encrypt_password before_create :make_activation_code But for some reason when I try to create a user programmatically in the controller like this: User.new(:email => ''user-n8tE+Mx9DRM@public.gmane.org'', :password => ''123456'', :password_confirmation => ''12345...

I admit I am stuck. I am converting a legacy php site to ROR. The old site uses MD5, a security flaw waiting to happen.

If it is, crypt and check the password against the old md5 version and write it in the new crypted_password field. Here is my code add on before the logged_in?: def
