Simple Press is causing new reg emails to give password "both"

Something's funky with my installation. For some reason when a user signs up, their registration email gives them the password "both" which, obviously, is incorrect. I double checked another registration plugin I have was disabled and that wasn't causing the problem, I disabled SP and tried again and the email put the password in the email correctly.

Any ideas what would cause this and how to fix it? Everything is running the most up to date versions

Small world, had a buddy register yesterday that said the same thing.

"it’s not letting me login the wp screen shakes when I enter the pw of “both” which is what your system gave me."

And to think i told him he was an idiot, and WordPress does not generate passwords like that. laugh

I think this is a WordPress glitch.

Registered as a new user from the wp-login.php prompt and got the same thing.

I did that too but as soon as I disabled simple press it worked as normal again which is what brings me back to SP

are you sure you guys are not using a plugin called Spam Shield?  perhaps check out this item:  https://core.trac.wordpress.or.....cket/33443

of course, we will have to check as well and make sure we dont have a similar problem...

its not a general issue with simple press - those emails are going out, but perhaps some combination of settings can impact...

based on the number of core tickets on stuff, its appearing the wp devs have changed a whole lot more that impacts plugins than they advertised or even knew about...
