    Hello! My students register on my website to see the free courses, but they forget their password and request a new password. It turns out that they use a weak password and the site accepts at the time of creation, but when they go to login, the site says that the password is wrong. How do I get students to login with a weak password? that is, whenever they ask to recover their password, they are allowed to create any type of password, including a weak password, in order to use the site.

    Hello Dear,

    There are a few things you can try. One of them you have already tried.

    Clear your browser cache (which you have stated you have tried), just make sure you cleared everything, cookies and cache.

    Try deactivating all plugins by either logging in via SSH or FTP to your server and rename wp-content/plugins to wp-content/plugins_backup.

    Change wp theme, it maybe an issue with your current theme. Try changing to one of the defaults like twentyfifteen.

    .htaccess could be causing problems so you can once again SSH or FTP to your server and rename .htaccess to htaccess.backup.

    Also check your wp-config.php making sure that your site url is defined properly, eg:

    define('WP_HOME','http://example.com');

    define('WP_SITEURL','http://example.com');

    I hope this helps.
