Allow weak password

The checkbox that allows weak passwords is removed from the resetpasss-form.php template file. I wonder why?

This is the code that can be added in order to utilize this otherwise built-in function from WordPress core.

<div class="pw-weak">
	<label>
		<input type="checkbox" name="pw_weak" class="pw-checkbox" />
		<?php _e( 'Confirm use of weak password' ); ?>
	</label>
</div>

Please, can this be integrated into Theme My Login plugin somehow. Or even better, a action hook or filter that can be used to alter the password strength functionality?

It is not removed from the template file in the plugin. If it’s ‘missing’ from your file, I expect you use a custom one to override it, or you use css to hide it.

Do you have a link to show the form ?

Hi Beee. Thanks for replying. If it’s in there, then great. I can’t remember why I couldn’t find it when I posted this thread, but if it’s there, then I’ll sort it out.

Just look at the source code: https://github.com/jfarthing84/theme-my-login/blob/6.4/templates/resetpass-form.php#L26

Plz remember it doesn’t show on the page you listed in your OP. That is the form to send the email which has the link to reset the password.

Visit link X (to reset password).
Enter login/email.
System sends email to you.
You click the reset link and get redirect to page Y.
On page Y is where the weak password setting shows.
