Paranoid Mode Not Enforcing Password Length
I have set define('PERCH_PARANOID', true)
but was still able to set a password to 5 characters long. I have also tried: define(PERCH_PASSWORD_MIN_LENGTH: 8)
and it still wasn't being enforced.

Where and when are you setting the password?
First via the link in the email generated by creating a new user. Then if I log in as that user, I can again set a password below that threshold.
Can you give me the URLs?
Link from email:
/admin/core/reset/?token=4vse4q29rz9pklih6avlvqx9puim6u20&new=1
And on the account page:
admin/core/account/
For some reason you have
PERCH_STRONG_PASSWORDS
as false. Not sure why that is, but try:Great, that worked, although
define('PERCH_STRONG_PASSWORDS', false);
wasn't declared in my config.On a related note, if I go into the Users sections and choose to resend the link for that user without entering my own password to Authenticate, the form shows a validation error but the email still comes through.
Right,
false
is the default as most people don't want that functionality.But shouldn't
define('PERCH_PARANOID', true)
setPERCH_STRONG_PASSWORDS
totrue
?It should do yes, and now it does, but in the build you have it wasn't.
Good to know, cheers as always Drew.
