    In the plugin iThemes Security plugin there is an option called “Strong Passwords – Force users to use strong passwords as rated by the WordPress password meter.” What would happen if a user currently doesn’t have a strong password?

    Hi @anabellafp,

    Thanks for reaching out to us.

    When the Strong password feature is used and a user has a weak password, they’ll be prompted to reset their password on their next log in. Please see: https://share.getcloudapp.com/6qub6Jp0

    Please let me know if it helps and if I can be of further assistance.

    Best regards,
    Shalom

    @shalomt Thanks.
    So, first the user will need to log in with their current login details (even if they have a weak password) and ONLY THEN they will be prompted to reset their password. Is that right?

    That’s correct.
