Question

I need to get the password from a failed login attempt in WordPress but I don’t know how, I’m using the action wp_failed_login to hook into this but when I do:

add_action('wp_login_failed', 'login_failed_func'); 

function login_failed_func($args){ 
    var_dump($args);
}

It only returns the username, does anyone know what I should do?

Thanks in advance!

You could adjust your function like this:

add_action('wp_login_failed', 'login_failed_func'); 

function login_failed_func($args) { 
    var_dump($args);
    echo "\n<br />"."password = ". $_POST['pwd']."<br />\n";
}
