Bug? Something's wrong with password fields

    Hello, I’m using GF 1.8.20 on WP 4.1. Just about a week or two ago, I started having problems with my form responses whereby the password field was not being passed via the forms’ confirmation redirect url. I didn’t notice the problem right away, but this caused problems with all form submissions made during that time.

    It’s really weird, though, it seems that those passwords entered in that field are nowhere to be found! I cannot review them when I look at the results of the form submissions, new or old, and I cannot use the short code for the password field to send in a confirmation email anymore, either; if I use the “all fields” short code, the password is not shown in the email.

    I created a whole new blank form, with just name, email, and password, on the same site, and it exhibits the same behavior. Tomorrow, I’ll try it on another site, and see if that is any different.

    Can anybody else take a look at this and see if they see the same problem with password fields?

    Thanks in advance!

    Yay, Merry Christmas! Guess I won’t get a response for a while, but I’m still working on this. I finally found where the passwords were, and still are, stored in the database, but still no obvious reason for them to not be displayed.

    Oh wait, I just setup the plugin on a new site, and tried to create a test form, and I don’t even see the password field type at all under Advanced Fields in the editor. Hmmm, you CAN insert a plain text field and click “enable password input” which blocks out the viewing of the password, but you no longer get the two different entry boxes and the password meter. Have these been deprecated, I wonder?
