Customer Account - Password length

Site URL: https://www.justgoodjuju.com

Does anyone have any way to reduce the minimum required length of a Customer Account password?  Our customers are very vocal about how 10 characters is too extreme (it's more than Banks).  I get the need for strong passwords (given the PCI implications) but 10 is just too much.

Hi , I don't think so it's possible as Squarespace checks password length on backend 😞 so it seems not possible to lmit it.

Thanks - I figured.  It is ridiculous - they should at least have options that someone can select.  Hardly any site needs 10 character passwords.

Yeah, first thing that a member said to me. 10 digits!

The UK's Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) states that for online services that process personal data "You should set a suitable minimum password length (this should be no less than 10 characters)". The Squarespace policy helps to ensure that we are following this guidance and protecting our customers' personal data.
