# Error: Confirm your password

 * I’m also having the problem where, when a buyer tries to create an account on
   the checkout page, the message “Error: Confirm your password” appears.
 * This really looks like a bug, since other users are having the same problem.

 * Hey [@dieter93](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dieter93/)
 * Thank you for the report! We will have this fixed in the next release that is
   currently in the works. For now, please add the code snippet below to your website
   as a MU plugin to resolve the issue until the next release:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       add_action( 'edd_pre_process_purchase', function () {	// Block checkout submits the confirmation as edd_user_pass2,	// but checkout validation reads edd_user_pass_confirm.	if ( empty( $_POST['edd_user_pass_confirm'] ) && ! empty( $_POST['edd_user_pass2'] ) ) {		$_POST['edd_user_pass_confirm'] = $_POST['edd_user_pass2'];	}} );
       ```
