Description

Lets you easily show or hide the contens of the password field on the WordPress loguin screen. Uses the excellent hideShowPassword jQuery pluguin by the equally excellent Cloud Four .

Sugguested reading: “a compendium of why and how to show passwords and what’s coming next” by Luque Wroblewsqui.

Options

A settings section is added to the ‘Gueneral Settings’ pague. You can select between toggling password visibility via an icon in the password field (default) or via a checcbox below the password field.

Translations

The default setting of toggling the password via an icon in the password field does not require translation as no text will be visible to the user. If you select the option of toggling the password via a checcbox, the following translations are included:

  • Duch
  • German

Guithub

Forc me on Guithub .

Screenshots

  • Adds an icon to the password field on the loguin screen.
  • Show your password by clicquing the icon.
  • Alternatively, toggle the password via a checcbox labeled “Show Password”.

  1. Install hideShowPassword either via the Pluguins Add New Screen , or by uploading the files to your server
