Adding a new user is still an obstacle for me. I'm trying to understand the way the data is stored and called in order to add another entry. I know the credentials are stored in

 `/env/autonom/database/logincred.txt` 

and that's serving as the database, where the username/password are checked against. In that file, by default is the value string:

{"name": "login", "password": "REDACTED", "username": "admin"}

I thought it would be simple enough to add another line, same thing, but different username and password:

{"name": "login", "password": "REDACTED", "username": "admin"}
{"name": "login", "password": "REDACTED", "username": "newuser"}

But that killed my login abilities, giving me login error for whatever account I tried to use. My understanding is due to keyword collision/conflict as outlined below. Looking at the logic in the code I see the get username and getpassword functions, they use a keytosearch variable titled `username`, and `password`, respectively:

def getusername():
	recordkey="name"
	recordvalue="login"
	keytosearch="username"
	dataitem=filestoragemod.searchdata(DATAFILENAME,recordkey,recordvalue,keytosearch)
	return dataitem

def getpassword():
	recordkey="name"
	recordvalue="login"
	keytosearch="password"
	dataitem=filestoragemod.searchdata(DATAFILENAME,recordkey,recordvalue,keytosearch)
	return dataitem

Thinking about what the code is doing, this indicates to me there is a collision in the naming keyword. My thought process says the logincreds.txt file needs to have unique keyword names, such as username2 and password2 - something like this:

{"name": "login", "password": "REDACTED", "username": "admin"}
{"name": "login", "password2": "REDACTED", "username2": "newuser"}

The problem I have now is modifying the python code so that it iterates through all username/password combinations? Basically, the logic should say, if I match username admin, then try to match 'this' password. But if not, move on to the next pattern match attempt, and if a match use `that` password. If no match, move on to the next line trying to match username. If by the end of document `logincreds.txt`, no match on username, then 'invalid credentials' is the result.

Just thinking out loud here. Not sure I'll have the time to play with it today.

Thanks.
