As of now the pluging for Mediawikit does not save the login credentials within Digikam. This is a pain. When ever, I want to upload pictures, I have to enter the login and password. This is not needed. Can you please provide an option to save the login credentials, so that repetitive login/password entries can be avoided. Thank you.

This would be great!

Especially as the username and password used should not be one's normal password, but a bot password, and so is often more laborious to use.

Thank you if you implement this.
