<p>WordPress profile pages contain a visual indicator which shows the strength of a user’s chosen password. This is nice, but WordPress doesn’t actually enforce this in any way, so users are free to select weak passwords.</p>
<p>Minimum Password Strength uses the same method to calculate a password’s strength, but forces users to meet a minimum strength requirement before they can change their password.</p>
<p>By default, passwords must have “Medium” strength, but administrators can change this to force passwords to be at least “Weak”, “Medium”, or “Strong”. To change the minimum strength, go to Settings -> Password Strength after installing Minimum Password Strength.</p>
<p>For now, all users have the same password strength requirements, but a later release will allow administrators to select different strength requirements for different roles.</p>


Minimum Password Strength

Enforce a specific password strength. Uses the same strength calculations as the WordPress password strength meter

<p>A simple plugin that removes the Dashboard menu, the Personal Options section and the Help link on the Profile page, hides the Dashboard links in the toolbar menu (if activated), and prevents Dashboard access to users assigned to the <em>Subscriber</em> role. Useful if you allow your subscribers to edit their own profiles, but don’t want them wandering around your WordPress admin section.</p>
<p>Users belonging to any of the other WordPress roles will continue to see and have access to the other sections of the WordPress admin that correspond to their role’s capabilities.</p>
<p>WP Hide Dashboard has been tested with WordPress in Single mode and Multisite mode, and works with both of them.</p>
<p><strong>Note: Version 2.2 requires a minimum of WordPress 3.4. If you are running a version less than that, please upgrade your WordPress install before installing or upgrading.</strong></p>
