Open ItsAdityaKSingh opened this issue 3 years ago • 6 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The password field's validator does it signify what it wants for a successful entry. It only says Invalid password while signing up.

Describe the solution you'd like It should show various conditions like characters needed, length, etc.

Approach to be followed (optional) Adding a few conditions and error messages to the validator.

I face same issue of bad user interface, it don't specify the conditions. few conditions:

  • length: min 8 letters/numbers/characters.
  • uppercase: min 1 letter should be uppercase.
  • number: at least 1 number.
  • special character: at least 1 special character.
  • long password: if total letters/numbers/characters exceed 16 we can show password too long or limit user.
  • password strength: 1- if total number of entity >8 and <=10 we can display week password. 2- if total number of entity >10 and <14 we can display good password. 3- if total number of entity >=14 and <=16 we can display strong password.

I would like to work on this if you allow me to do. thank you.

It still just shows an invalid password. Moreover, there are no conditions to tell users what extra needs to be done.

Please only state what needs to be done after submitting the password.
