How to Create a Login Form/Custom Login Page for WordPress

The default should be fine for most sites. However, if you are an advanced user and wish to customize the login form, they are parameters that you can pass in the shortcode to customize it.

[wp_login_form redirect="https://example.com/mypage/"]

The default is to redirect back to the URL where the form was submitted.

  1. Hey
    I’m using your plugin for my website

    Tell me please, why I can’t use user email for authorization?

    It works only with a user nickname. But the default WP login form could use both of them
    Please help me to resolve it.

    Thanks.

    Best regards,
    Oleh

    • @Oleh, It works with email addresses as well. You may have a plugin that is affecting this functionality.

  3. Thank you for this plugin, it works in the way that I want, except on my login screen the “lost your password?” and the “log out” lines are justified to the left and not underlined as per your demo video.

    Wish list
    If the details are wrong the plug-in redirects to the standard WordPress login, can there be a link back to the login page?

    Can the logout instruction be a button like the login button.

    Thank you for your help

    • @Tony, The login form comes from WordPress. WordPress currently doesn’t offer an option to customize this behavior.

  4. I just tried setting this up, my page is blank and does not display the log in screen, also does this us the master user password? or can ‘Application Password’ be used for this purpose?
    Thanks
