In this article, you will learn how to remove the Password Strength Meter from WooCommerce on the checkout page. With latest version of WooCommerce a new feature has been introduced to checkout page :- The Password Strength Meter.
Password Strength Meter forces users to choose or use strong password on checkout page, when customer want to create new account. Personally, i use 1 password to create account and store all of my password, so this is not issue for me, but average customers would not like to use different password for different accounts. Mostly customers want to use same password for all accounts which is easily to be remember, at that point Strong passwords Meter create an issue with customers. This resulted in less revenue for business, as customers would leave the website without purchasing anything. So if you want to increase your revenue for business, you need to remove Strong Password Meter feature from checkout page.
You can completely remove the strong password meter and restore the checkout process as it was before. To do this, you need to add below function in your functions.php file in your file directory:
wp-content/themes/your-theme-name/
2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
/** * Remove password strength check. */ function iconic_remove_password_strength() { wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-password-strength-meter' ); } add_action( 'wp_print_scripts', 'iconic_remove_password_strength', 10 ); |
