Challenge - Solve the Puzzle. Due: Dec 31, 2024.

@cattyplayzy he stored hte answer in a database, but it turns out databases show what they’re storing to anybody who clicks them, I (and most definitely Jeff as well) were assuming it would only show to the project owner when you click the database, hence secure, bu it turns out it shows to anybody
@tyller_ Thanks for telling me that, I was sorta aware about that but I didn’t mind because solving the puzzle either way requires smarts, whether it be following instructions exactly as you’re told or hacking stuff.
However this is actually a big issue if someone is for example making a project using a database table that would be filled with rows of private info, like usernames, passwords, user data, etc. So uh, @info-creaticode could you guys make it so databases in a project are always private, even when the source code is made viewable? In this case, some people want their code to be public, so maybe make it so database access is denied when another user is using the “See Inside” of a project as that user can probably use that to gain an unfair advantage in a game.

@cattyplayzy so you just want an image? Or a project? I can do either but I can do my best using actual image making software

If you want to keep the database private, why not just publish the project? If you share the project, then it is supposed to be open, so anyone can access it, right?

@info-creaticode
He made a challenge where seeing inside was crucial. That’s why.
Plus the downside of that request is people remixing it and seeing what it is.Forums Moderator.

When a project is shared, it is the same for every user, so you can’t really enforce privacy anymore.

@info-creaticode
Yeah. I understand that. Maybe allow users to make a password lock on it? -

@info-creaticode actually that’s true, makes sense

@cattyplayzy good job thats the right code

@info-creaticode
Yeah. I understand that. Maybe allow users to make a password lock on it?If you share the project, it should be 100% shared, so a password lock does not seem to be appropriate.
This project of yours is pretty special, as you want to keep some secrets yet you need to allow users to look inside. Maybe a better solution is to have two projects, one for sharing the source code and the other (publish-only) project for submitting answers?

Not that I can see so far. however I might change it after a while to something that looks better. Not saying it’s bad, it’s just that things can get old at times haha.
