The verification of matching between the "password" and "password_confirm" variables in the "Reset password" process does not work #152

Current state

A user (Fabrice) has reported trying to reset his password. He believes that he wrote twice the same characters string in the password and password_confirm fields. However, he receives the message that they don't match.

In the absence of a feature enabling to visualise the text in theses fields, he cannot control whether he made a mistake, of if it is the machine.

Desired state

The error message password_not_match should be displayed only when indeed the two variables password and password_confirm do not match.

It would be nice if the user could have the option to visualise in clear text the values that s/he provides to both variables, in order to control by him/herself whether the input is correct.

I propose to allow the option to show or hide passwords in the input field.

SergioArbarviro commented 1 month ago

@michaellaunay I agree with your proposal.

The nature and possible origin of the bug have been identified and are now in issue #153 The addition of a possibility to visualise the password when setting it is now the purpose of issue #154
