03 / Website use cases
Where to use password field guidance
Sign-up and account forms often reject a password only after it is sent, with a vague message. Password field guidance shows the rules beside the field and ticks them as the visitor types, warns when Caps Lock is on and can add a Show password button, without sending or storing the password.

07 / Requirements and compatibility
Password field guidance compatibility with Elementor
- Requires Elementor; works without Elementor Pro and WooCommerce.
- Guidance only: it does not block the form or check passwords on the server.
- Runs in the visitor’s browser; nothing is sent to the server.
Complementor uses classic Elementor APIs. Atomic-native controls are not implemented. Check your theme, cache and integrations on a staging site before release.
08 / Common setup problems
Troubleshoot password field guidance
Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.
Why do the rules not tick?
No password field was found. Place the widget in the same container or enter the field’s CSS ID.
Why is the match rule never met?
There is no second password field after the first in the same form.
Why does the form still reject the password?
The form has other rules. Turn on the same rules here.
Why does Show password not appear?
It is switched off, or another guidance widget already added one to that field.
Password field guidance plugin questions
Does it need Elementor Pro?
No. It works with the free version of Elementor and any password field, including Elementor Pro forms.
Is the password sent anywhere?
No. It is read in the browser only and never sent or stored by the widget.
Does it measure password strength?
No. It checks the rules you turn on and says so under the list.
Does it enforce the rules?
No. The form must enforce them; the widget explains them.
Is it accessible?
Yes. The rules are linked to the field, met rules are announced in words and changes are announced politely.
