How Do I Turn Off Password Strength in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 7:36 pm

When setting up a WooCommerce store, you may want to consider turning off password strength requirements. By doing this, you can make it easier for customers to create an account and checkout without having to remember a complex password. Password strength can be turned off by following these steps:

1. Log into your WordPress admin panel and navigate to WooCommerce > Settings.

2. Click on the Accounts tab and then select the checkbox next to “Enable customer registration on the “My Account” page”.

3. Scroll down to the “Account Creation” section and select the checkbox next to ” Allow customers to create an account without providing a password”.

4. Save your changes.

After following these steps, customers will be able to create an account without having to enter a password. If you want to require a password for account creation, you can leave the “Password Strength” setting enabled. This will ensure that customers choose a strong password when creating their account.

PRO TIP: If you are using WooCommerce to sell products online, it is important to keep your password strength high in order to protect your account and customers’ information. However, if you find that you need to turn off password strength for any reason, please be aware that this could leave your account and customers’ information vulnerable. To turn off password strength, go to WooCommerce > Settings > Accounts & Privacy > Password Strength and select the “Weak” option.
