Tagged: Password Reset
The password reset feature in eMember is working as expected. However, several times a week I have customers who think the generated password is invalid because they are confusing characters such as the letter “o” with the number “0” and the letter “l” with the number “1”.
Q1. Is there a way to limit the generated password so that these characters are not allowed in the password?
Q2. Is there a way to limit the generated password to either all caps or no caps?
Thank you!

Doing so will severely affect your site’s security posture.

$chars = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789';
if($special_chars) $chars .= '!@#$%^&*_-()';
Thanks wzp!
You could always tell them to copy and paste the password. You can put a message on your password reset page to guide them.
