Advanced Password/Wand Manager

Friday, 19. December 2008, 16:04:36

Opera's Wand could be very unforgiving when you make a mistake!! Ever choose "Never" when prompt to save a password & regret about it afterward? How about when you accidentally input a wrong password & saved it? To fix the mistake, you will have to go through Preferences > Wand > Passwords > Wand Manager, & then plow though all domain names in order to find & delete the wrong password, or reset certain setting... Why do we have to go through these troublesome routines? We shouldn't!!! That's why I combined a few tricks together to make managing wand & passwords a lot more easier!

A. Buttons
All buttons are capable of showing Wand Password (if available), & provide shortcut to Wand Manager with current active tab's domain highlighted, & some of 'em able to log-in like the regular Wand button:

Buttons A can't log-in, but able to view Wand Password, & provide shortcut to Wand Manager.
Buttons B log-in after you close the Password Viewer, & provide shortcut to Wand Manager.
Buttons C show Wand Password for 2 seconds & then log-in, & provide shorcut to Wand Manager.

You can get these handy buttons from HERE

B. Setup Shortcuts
1. First, go to Preferences (Ctrl+F12) > Advanced > Shortcuts > Mouse/Keyboard Setup.
(& create a new mouse/keyboard setup, if you didn't do that already)

2. Next, double-click on a Mouse/Keyboard setup you want to use, select Application section.

3. Finally, create/modify a shortcut with your preferred MG/Hotkey with the following actions:

Wand Manager with active tab's domain highlighted:

Go to page, "javascript:void(prompt('', document.domain));" & Delay, 1 & Copy & Click default button & Delay,1 & Manage wand & Paste & Focus Next Widget

Wand Password Viewer:

Wand & Delay, 30 & Stop & Go to page, "javascript:(function(){var s,F,j,f,i; s=''; F=document.forms; for(j=0; j<F.length; ++j){f=F[j]; for(i=0; i<f.length; ++i){if(f[i].type && f[i].type.toLowerCase()=='password')s+=f[i].value+'\n';}}if(s)alert('Passwords in forms on this page:\n\n'+s);else alert('There are no passwords in forms on this page.');})();"

View Wand Password & log-in:

Wand & Go to page, "javascript:(function(){var s,F,j,f,i; s=''; F=document.forms; for(j=0; j<F.length; ++j){f=F[j]; for(i=0; i<f.length; ++i){if(f[i].type && f[i].type.toLowerCase()=='password')s+=f[i].value+'\n';}}if(s)alert('Passwords in forms on this page:\n\n'+s);else alert('There are no passwords in forms on this page.');})();"

View Wand Password & log-in after 2 seconds:

Wand & Go to page, "javascript:(function(){var s,F,j,f,i; s=''; F=document.forms; for(j=0; j<F.length; ++j){f=F[j]; for(i=0; i<f.length; ++i){if(f[i].type && f[i].type.toLowerCase()=='password')s+=f[i].value+'\n';}}if(s)alert('Passwords in forms on this page:\n\n'+s);else alert('There are no passwords in forms on this page.');})();" & Delay, 2000 & Click default button

C. How It Works?
Simply go to the log-in page & execute the Wand Manager+ (button/shortcut) to evoke a Wand Manager with proper domain name highligted, then you can reset setting or delete password as needed. As a bonus, you can also view Wand Password with it too...

CREDITS: I found the original Password Viewer from HERE & HERE; Part of syntax for Wand Manager+ are developed by Tamil.

I don't understand how you used that page as a panel.

ZAHEK # 22. December 2008, 13:27

You can save this page as a panel.And of course this panel will use only to see the buttons

Thanks for this little gem - makes my life a lot easier - although to be honest i am a little disappointed that opera synchronize does not save wand details as well - even if it's just an option as is bookmarks.

"Preferences(Ctrl+F12) > Advanced > Shortcuts > Mouse/Keyboard Setup."

i) I have no Mouse/Keyboard Setup
ii) I have no idea what it does.

But hey. I installed the buttons anyway but won't use these. Nor will I removed because I don't know how :D he he

Great buttons,however, there is a problem if one has two Gmail accounts! the first button will not show the two passwords or give you an option of choosing the login one wants to use.

im confused as to what this does...can you create a shortcut (ctrl+shift+p) to fill in wand passwords, or is this to add button shortcuts for wand?

Another option is to decode the wand.dat file.

I've got some free code here to do that
