Hi,
Is there any hook to check password strength on profile update? I can can do it on registration via ‘bp_signup_validate’ action, but users can change their password and use a weak one in general settings page.

Cheers!

I second action here.

WP now has a password strength indicator with an option to allow a weak password. There is a plugin here that removes that option, so a user setting their password in the backend cannot set one WP regards as weak.

Bu there is nothing to stop a use setting a very weak password in their BuddyPress profile. It warns you it is weak but still allows it. Please can we have the ability to block that?
