 * Is there a way to further customize the automatically generated passwords for
   LifterLMS users? For example, to exclude the letters i, l, o, and the number 
   0? To include/exclude certain symbols? Etc.

 * [@wplms24](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wplms24/),
 * LifterLMS doesn’t automatically generate any passwords for students. If a student
   is creating an account they choose their password themselves and LifterLMS doesn’t
   choose that password for them.
 * We have a lot of requests to automatically generate passwords and send them by
   email but for security reasons this is a feature we’ve said publicly we will 
   not build.
 * Are you using a plugin that does this? If so you’ll want to contact the plugin
   dev for assistance here.
 * If you’re actually creating users on the admin panel and using the WP Core auto
   generated password feature you can write up a little plugin using this filter:
   [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.9/src/wp-includes/pluggable.php#L2302](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.9/src/wp-includes/pluggable.php#L2302)
 * Or you could plug the whole function to create your own list of chars to generate
   the password.
 * Hope that helps,
