A5 Custom Login Page

February 26, 2016

A5 Custom Login Page Plugin

Style your login page differently.

If you are working for a customer or you just want to set a page for a community (band, choir etc.) they might appreciate their own logo at the login screen. With this plugin, you can even go further and style your whole login page according to your needs. At the moment, there is only the way for ‘dummies’ to style the page, but in a future version you will be able to enter some css code yourself and the final goal is, also to offer the possibility to copy an entire stylesheet into the plugin, to have the most freedom of styling and changing the items on your loginscreen. Since version 1.7 the A5 Custom Login Page is also for a WP networksetup.

Fromon Version 2.2, you can redirect different user roles to different pages after login. There is now also a custom login widget that you can style according to your needs and display it on your blog. Or only in the categories or posts. The widget is very flexible and you can show it on your whole site or only on post pages or only the frontpage etc.

Fromon Version 2.7 there’s a shortcode [a5-login-form], to get your login form wherever you want.

Installation Instructions

  1. Upload the custom-login-page folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Go to ‘Settings’ and style your login page

The login page doesn’t change, no matter what i do.

The CSS style sheet is a virtual one and the plugin adds a rewrite rule to refer to it. In some environments that’s not working and thus the styles are not readable.

In the case your login screen is not changing after saving the settings, go to the debug section of the settings page and choose inline display of the styles. That should make your own design available.

How do I place the login form to a page?

Simply type [a5-login-form], where ever you want the form to appear. You can style the login form and it’s wrapping container in the short code settings section.
