Reset password and Save button disable

Hello @gabberman2!

The button is usually disabled if the password entered doesn’t meet the WordPress requirement, such as if it’s too short.

In such cases, a dynamic hint box is shown to alert the customer, but my guess is that your theme isn’t displaying it.

To confirm this, try entering a strong password in both fields. If it works, you should contact your theme author for assistance. Alternatively, you can add your own hint using the woocommerce_after_reset_password_form hook.

Cheers!

Is there a plugin to display if the password is strong enough or not?

You don’t need a plugin. There should be a small hint box by default, but as I mentioned, it seems like your theme is not displaying it. Try switching to the Twenty Twenty-Four theme temporarily to see what I’m talking about. : )

Hi @gabberman2,

WooCommerce does include a built-in strength meter and typically displays a message like “Very weak – Please enter a stronger password” below the password field. If that’s not showing, it’s likely that your theme is overriding or not loading the necessary styles or scripts.

It would be a good idea to reach out to your theme’s support team to check if they’re affecting the default WooCommerce behavior.

Is there a way to look some files by myself to find the issue? If you can give me some advices which files to search in.

WooCommerce already loads a password strength meter script on that page, so the issue is most likely due to:

• Your theme is dequeuing that script (possibly for performance optimization), or
• Your theme’s overridden code isn’t using the same selectors that the script expects.

If you want to display a general message to prevent user confusion, you can try adding this snippet (though note it might not work if your theme has modified the template):

add_action( 'woocommerce_after_reset_password_form', function() {
    echo '<p style="color: #d63638; font-weight: bold;">Please make sure you add a strong password with uppercase, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols for better security.</p>';
});
