Custom Passwords

  I notice that when someone logs into my blog, they are required to use a random password that is sent to them. Is there anyway to update a widget to allow for custom passwords? I just think that it will be really hard and troublesome for someone to remember such random characters or go back to their email to copy and paste.

  Is there anything I can do to change that?

  Thanks

  We can’t answer technical questions without a link to the blog in question, starting with http. This is true even if it’s a private blog; don’t worry, the URL won’t enable us to see a private blog, just to verify a few technical things.

  Hello,

  I would like to allow registered users to choose their own password.

  Is that possible?

  I don’t want the random email that is sent to them.

  Thanks

  Sorry, you are in the wrong forum and need to head over to http://wordpress.ORG/support/ as http://www.mugoplayer.com/ is self-hosted and self-hosted wordpress blogs using the software from wordpress.ORG are supported there.

  This is the forum for people hosted here on the wordpress.COM free hosting service and things here work differently and our answers typically will not work for you.

  If you do not know the difference, see this sticky thread from the top of the forums: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/please-read-me-first-before-posting?replies=1 .
