Joomla registration password requirements

Using CF5 with Joomla 3.7. I have set up a form for Joomla registration that is working great, verifying that username, email, etc. are available, properly activating the new account, and so on, but the one thing it doesn't do is check the password restrictions. In the User Manager options I have set the minimum password length to 8 but the form still allowed a 4 character password. Is there a way to fix that?

Hi megana,

I can only suggest that you add validation to the input to check that it meets your specification.

Thanks Bob, that's what I was about to do but wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything obvious with the registration action first.
