Comment:
I'd love to see this get shipped, I too have often been confused by this
form!
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/39638/reset-password.jpg
is a great step in the right direction. What I would tweak is:
- remove "Click to" from the "Click to generate password" button - it's a
button, that's how it works.
- rename "Reset" to "Save new password". Because even with all the other
improvements, and reading through this ticket, seeing that button still
triggered the idea in me that that button resets what I entered in the
password field... The whole process this form is a part of is 'resetting
your password', the specific action you take by pressing that button is
'saving your new password'.
With those changes I'd say design and UX-wise this feels ready for a
patch.
