The saved credentials is not effective when connect db

Hi @seepine
Actually, it's not a bug. It's a frustrating name for a check-box 😞 We are going to make it clearer, I'll prioritize this task.
Here's how it works: When you check 'Save credentials' in the authentication dialog, you save the credentials only for the current user and only for the current session. After logging out, you will have to input the credentials again.
Credentials can be saved only in the connection form.
- For a private connection (if this option is enabled in the admin panel), it can be done by the current user.
- For a shared connection, it can be done by any admin user. Then all users who have access to that connection can use it without needing to re-enter credentials. So it's like the credentials are saved and shared.
This is too difficult to understand. 😱
