Is it possible to add a password confirmation field on the registration form?

But what would they confirm if the password is generated by s2Member and sent to the person by email?

A password will be e-mailed to you.

No no, I'm afraid you got it all wrong.

We are referring to two password fields.

Since no password e-mail is being sent it is relatively easy to mistype a password only in one field so that's why we need two password fields to obtain some error like "the passwords you typed do not match".

Hope it's clear now.

Thanks.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry. You had enabled "Allow Custom Passwords during Registration" in General Options -> Custom Registration.

You are right, a password confirmation field woul be good. I'll ask Jason about it.

Hey there.

Saw that 3.5.8 rolled out and there is still no support for password confirmation on registration form (which I'm sure you and all the users agree it's MUST for a better-flow of things).

Thanks and keep it going !
