31656	Help Texts in UserCreationForm cannot be overridden	emapall	nobody	"I'm referring to this part of documentation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/topics/forms/modelforms/#overriding-the-default-fields


While using a custom form class subclassed from {{{django.contrib.auth.forms.UserCreationForm}}} and overridding the help texts of the fields via the help_texts dictionary, the passwords field's help texts cannot be overridden. That is, even if in the Meta subclass i have 


{{{
help_texts = {
        ""password1"":""whatever"",
        ""password"":""whatever2,
}
}}}

The html renders the standard built in list (and ofc in the view that renders the template with the form,  {{{form.fields['password1'].help_text}}} is the standard built in list too)

Overriding fine with the other fields, but not the password(s). I have tried using ""password"", ""password1"" and ""password2"" as dict keys (even though I'm conscious of 1 and 2 being different fields)."	Bug	closed	Forms	3.0	Normal	invalid			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
