    → "Password does not meet the site's requirements."

• Improved clarity in validation messages:

  • "Password does not have enough numbers. At least %s numbers are required."
    → "Password must contain at least %s numeric character(s)."

  • "Password does not have enough lower case characters. At least %s lower case characters are required."
    → "Password must contain at least %s lowercase character(s)."

  • "Password does not have enough upper case characters. At least %s upper case characters are required."

Testing Instructions

1. Set up a local Joomla installation (e.g., using XAMPP/WAMP).

2. Navigate to the Administrator panel.

3. Go to:
   Users → Manage → Add New User (or edit an existing user).

4. In the password field, intentionally enter invalid passwords to trigger validation messages:

   • Use a very short password
   • Exclude numbers
   • Exclude uppercase letters
   • Exclude symbols

5. Observe the password validation messages displayed.

6. Compare the updated messages with previous behavior:

   • Messages are now clearer and more descriptive
   • Requirements (e.g., number of characters, symbols) are explicitly stated
   • Improved grammar and consistency across all password-related messages

7. Confirm that:

   • Only text has changed
   • No functionality or validation logic is affected

No functional changes, only text improvements.
