Restrict Content Pro Enforce Strong Passwords

Description

The Enforce Strong Passwords addon adds password strength validation to the Restrict Content Pro registration form, requiring a minimum combination of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters before approving account creation. The check runs in real-time during new member registration and blocks submissions with weak passwords, reducing the risk of account invasions with restricted content or paid subscription areas.
