People searching “Laravel password confirmation Vue” add one password input and then the rule fails with no obvious bug. `confirmed` looks for a second field named `{field}_confirmation`.

> **TL;DR**
>
> -   The confirmed rule checks password\_confirmation.
> -   The Vue form needs that second field name.
> -   Do not hash the password in the Vue page, and do not send a confirmation to a column.

## The fix

Password reset on the starter kit already has both fields. The [Fortify guide](https://laravel-vuejs.space/laravel-fortify-vue) is that flow. This page is the rule when you add a password field of your own.

```php
use Illuminate\Validation\Rules\Password;

$validated = $request->validate([
    'password' => ['required', 'confirmed', Password::defaults()],
]);
```

```vue
<input v-model="form.password" name="password" type="password" autocomplete="new-password" />
<input v-model="form.password_confirmation" name="password_confirmation" type="password" autocomplete="new-password" />
<p v-if="form.errors.password">{{ form.errors.password }}</p>
```

The error is attached to `password`, not to `password_confirmation`. One paragraph under the first field is enough.

## What to avoid

> **Gotcha**
>
> Do not hash the password in the Vue page, and do not send a confirmation to a column. Only `password` is stored, and the cast on the User model hashes it. If you also `Hash::make()` in the controller, the password is hashed twice and login fails.
