    wordpress can be the most frustrating thing ever to try to customize, i have been reading topic after topic and no posts on how to do this

    the file to be edited i know it the admin.css and i am able to change the background color of the page.

    But for the life of me i can not change the background color of the login box, i searched the css file for color ffffff but returned no results.

    also how do you change the size for the login box

    wordpress really needs to redo their css, i hate looking at 1 line and having to keep scrolling instead of a full page view.

    Are you talking about wp-logging.php?
    If so, you’re right, it’s in admin.css
    body.login{ background-color: #??????; for the background
    .login form { background-color: #???????; for the first square
    #login form p { & .login form .input { for the inputs

    Ps: You can redo wordpress CSS if you need so ??

    Thanks for the reply

    yeah i am talking about the login.php

    i had figured out how to change the color of the 2 text boxes but i am trying to change the color of

    The first code you have changes the background for the whole page

    the 2nd code .login form changes the 2 text boxes

    I am trying to change the color of the outer box part and also trying to make the outer box bigger , hope this makes since

    i tried redoing some of the wordpress css but it just didnt look the way it should have.

    I acually use firefoxes firebug plugin and it tells me the css is

    login form {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FFFFFF;`

    but when i do a search for it in the css file i dont acually see
    any #FFFFFFF to change the color

    in admin.css you have to search for

    .login form{margin-left:8px;padding:26px 24px
46px;font-weight:normal;background:#fff;border:1px solid
#e5e5e5;-moz-box-shadow:rgba(200,200,200,0.7) 0 4px 10px
-1px;-webkit-box-shadow:rgba(200,200,200,0.7) 0 4px 10px
-1px;box-shadow:rgba(200,200,200,0.7) 0 4px 10px -1px;}

    Firebug reinterprets the css file. but you can just search for “.login form”

    thanks for that information…… i was able to change the color.

    also i been meesing with the idea of having
    a login.php
    a register.php

    instead of wp-login handling both i wasnt sure how complicated this would be.

    i created my form login.php and the css for the form, but i can not figure it out for the life of me….

    i seen different things like theme my login plugin but that wasnt very helpful

    then others say i need to create a page in the admin panel…

    this shouldnt be complicated but wordpress seems to make everything complicated.
