Suggestion: Remove notice ‘Sorry, we can’t find an account with that username.’
-
I find this error message to be beneficial to nobody except potential hackers. It does not benefit the site owner to disseminate whether a user account exists in the database.
A more generic message like ‘Username or password is incorrect’ remains ambiguous while delivering the necessary message.
With that said, is there a specific hook for just this message I can hunt down and remove? It seems tied to p.um-notice.err, which seems to be tied to other messages around the system I don’t want to hide.
