nevermind, found a plugin for this. thanks.

Can a default category be set? Or make is mandatory that a person entering a new entry chooses a category (i.e. I don't want to allow Entries with "no category" selected)

Thanks,

I need to add about 50 users quickly to the system for a project.
Anyone know if I can simply add them to the "authors" table in the database?
How is the password hashed (as ideally i'd like to set each one different).

Thanks,
