Hitting Enter in Password Field on Update Manager Creates "Change Connection Type" Button

Created on 16 May 2020, about 5 years ago

Updated 5 June 2024, about 1 year ago

Working with a new Drupal 8 site and installing modules via the "Install from a URL" option.

I don't yet have encryption set up so I get the "You are not using an encrypted connection so your password will be sent in plain text" warning. The only available connection method in the dropdown is FTP.

I enter my username and password but hit "Enter" after putting in my password rather than clicking the Continue button, assuming this was the default.

Instead of installing, the form reloads with a "Change connection type" button under the FTP selection box. If I click the button, the form again reloads as originally presented--no "Change Connection Type" button.

If I enter my username and password and hit Continue instead of the enter key, the form works as expected.

I've included images that show the interface.

I read the issue summary and the steps to reproduce seem rather clear. @smustgrave, what do you think is still needed? I'll leave the tag in case I really am missing something.

@newmediajosh, the 'change connection type' button should only display if javascript was not enabled. Do you recall if it was enabled or not?

Now that 📌 Deprecate/remove the ability to update a module from a URL and authorize.php Active and child issues are done, all this code is deprecated and will be removed in D12.
