Hi -
In DB collection you can't do it now, unfortunately.
are you sure about that? cause someone showed me that it can be done but I dont know the instructions
Yes, I'm sure.
But if you want to implement it from your side you can use any hash algorithm you need to convert password on the client part to it's hash and store it in the db.
For example here is an implementation for sha256: http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts...
Note: after you get hash of your "password" and stored it in DB you can only - get hash and compare it with other hash. So you can not get real "password" value.
