Password hash generation link is broken in web.config #213

Open ErikCL opened 8 years ago

ErikCL commented 8 years ago

On line 37 in the web.config file there is a link to an online SHA-1 hasher. That link: http://www.stringfunction.com/sha1-hash.html is no longer valid.

I think the link should be removed or updated.

This link http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/sha1.html seems to work and offer good information as a bonus. Fair warning if the decision is to use this site, I haven't done extensive testing to ensure all hashes it generates will be compatible. I also, have no connection to that site it was merely the first result from a web search using:

This is the website that I used when I started using MiniBlog in order to setup my hash. I've tested it against a hash method I wrote a while back and everything looked good. I think it would be a good one to use.
