Options

A settings section is added to the ‘General Settings’ page. You can select between toggling password visibility via an icon in the password field (default) or via a checkbox below the password field.

Translations

The default setting of toggling the password via an icon in the password field does not require translation as no text will be visible to the user. If you select the option of toggling the password via a checkbox, the following translations are included:
