Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Help secure your WooCommerce site by enforcing stronger passwords and taking additional control of your strength requirements.

What does this plugin do?

WooCommerce has an integrated Password Strength Meter which forces users to use strong passwords. Sometimes this isn’t desirable – with this plugin, you can choose between five password levels ranging from “Anything Goes” to “Strong Passwords Only”. In addition, you can modify the colors and appearance of these custom messages, as well as modify or remove the password hint.

For details on how the password strength is determined, please read the documentation here.

What’s New?

0 is a bit of a rewrite to bring the plugin up to modern coding standards. Functionality should not be impacted, but if it is, please reach out on the support forums.

1 is simply a hotfix declaring compatibility with WooCommerce HPOS. Since this plugin doesn’t touch anything with the orders or order metadata, it shouldn’t be impacted at all. However, if you notice any issues then please reach out via the contact form on my website.

Notes

While this does allow for user accounts to have weaker passwords, it’s a good idea to still encourage strong password use – especially for administrators!

Planned Features

  • Option to remove “- Please enter a stronger password.” that is added by WordPress.
  • Nothing else at the moment, but let me know if you have any ideas.
