WordPress profile pages contain a visual indicator which shows the strength of a user's chosen password. This is nice, but WordPress doesn't actually enforce this in any way, so users are free to select weak passwords.<\/p>\n\n

Minimum Password Strength uses the same method to calculate a password's strength, but forces users to meet a minimum strength requirement before they can change their password.<\/p>\n\n

By default, passwords must have \"Medium\" strength, but administrators can change this to force passwords to be at least \"Weak\", \"Medium\", or \"Strong\". To change the minimum strength, go to Settings -> Password Strength after installing Minimum Password Strength.<\/p>\n\n

For now, all users have the same password strength requirements, but a later release will allow administrators to select different strength requirements for different roles.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the 'minimum-password-strength' to the '\/wp-content\/plugins\/' directory<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
  3. Configure your required password strength in Settings -> Password Strength<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
