Description
Easy Digital Downloads Password Meter is a WordPress plugin designed to strengthen account security on sites using Easy Digital Downloads (EDD). It adds a configurable password strength meter directly to the EDD user registration form, with an option to display it for guest purchases. By evaluating password strength as users type, it helps enforce minimum strength requirements before registration.
The plugin also improves password usability with a show/hide password toggle and inline secure password generation, so users can set stronger passwords without leaving the form. For teams using Elementor or custom EDD templates, the extension stays focused on the registration flow and supports safer guest checkout experiences.
