News You Can Use: Case-Sensitive Passwords in The Raiser's Edge 7.91

No '80s teen comedy hero did sensitive better than Lloyd Dobler in Say Anything.... He went from crush and courtship to heartbreak and reconciliation with a girl he'd barely spoken to when the movie opened, and in the process became responsible for the most iconic trenchcoat/boombox tableau ever.

In The Raiser's Edge 7.91, you'll find sensitivity of another kind. Beginning in The Raiser's Edge 7.91, passwords are case sensitive. The update to The Raiser's Edge 7.91 changes passwords to all capital letters (e.g., "PASSWORD1" instead of "password1"). If you do not change your password, you will need to continue using all capital letters to log in. After logging in, we recommend users immediately change their password by selecting Edit, Change Password from The Raiser's Edge menu bar. New passwords created in The Raiser's Edge 7.91 are case-sensitive and must contain both letters and numbers and be a minimum of eight characters.

Before version 7.91, the default Supervisor password was Admin. Before case-sensitive passwords, users could type in "admin" and still be able to login. For database that have not changed the default settings, the Supervisor password will be changed to ADMIN after the update. If you haven't updated yet, keep this in mind when you log in to The Raiser's Edge 7.91 for the first time.
