using reg dishwashing soap in a dishwasher

At least that's a mistake they'll (probably) only make once.

Sorry, what's the problem with dishwasher soap? Isn't it meant to be specifically used in a dishwasher? Or does "regular dishwashing soap" refer to detergent? Sorry, I am just confused.

OP meant regular washing-up detergent. It's usually sold as "super-concentrated" so if you put it in a dishwasher the agitation and extra water make a LOT of foam. Usually it will start to pour out of the machine and make a massive mess.

There's soap for hand wash, "dish soap".

Then there's "dishwashing detergent" that goes in dishwashers.

"Dish soap" is made to make bubbles when hand washing, but it in a machine and you'll have a foam party
