## Descripcion

This plugin is a password generator that creates random passwords with using words,
numbers, and special characters.

Default random passwords can be difficult to for users to use (and remember – if
they don’t change it). WordPass simplifies this process by using words to create
passwords. Passwords will be generated in the style of 2*Kayak29, 2Bigcranium2#,
or %36POTATOE6.

This plugin works with WordPress as well as with any plugin that uses the WordPress
password generation function.

WordPass allows you to create a custom list of words to be used in password generation.

The plugin will create random passwords from your word list and apply numbers as
well as capitalization. How these settings are applied can be set in the plugin’s
settings. The recommended setting is « random » for best security.

Note: this plugin is great for membership sites where subscribers or low level users
need easy to remember passwords. But you should use secure (and possibly more complex)
passwords for higher level users, especially administrators. Use common sense in
the application of this plugin!

## Installacion

To install the plugin manually:

 1. Download the plugin zip package and upzip it.
 2. Upload the `/wordpass/` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.

#### Set up

Once the plugin is installed and activated, it will begin working automatically 
with its default settings.

It is **highly** recommended that you create a custom word list rather than rely
on the defaults. Using a custom word list makes it much more difficult to crack 
passwords since the word list is not known.

Additionally, when choosing words for your word list, remember that « more is better.»
More words and words of longer length are preferred. Using words like « car, » or«
boat » are much less secure than words like « physiological. »

Use common sense when developing your word list. Don’t use commonly used passwords
in the word list. Even though letter case can be randomized and numbers and special
characters randomly added, it is still a bad idea to use commonly used passwords
in your word list.

## FAQ

### Where are the settings?

The plugin settings are under the Settings > WordPass menu in the WordPress admin.
You can choose the letter case for the word so that it will be all lowercase, all
uppercase, first letter uppercase, or a random selection.

You are encouraged to enter your own custom word list. But use common sense! Don’t
use words that are common (see: http://www.passwordrandom.com/most-popular-passwords).

### What kind of passwords will be generated?

The plugin uses the words in your word list to generate a random password consisting
of one word, between one and three numbers, and possibly a special character. These
elements will be shuffled at random so that all the elements are randomly mixed.
Passwords will be generated like $kayak9, 22Cranium!, or 3#4POTATO6.
