Login widget not working on site migrated to WPengine

    I’ve recently migrated a site using this plugin for front-end login to WPengine hosting. On submission of the login form, I am directed to /wp-login.php where I see white screen – Chrome shows a ‘No data received’ error.

    @vivek, have you or any users experienced this on WPengine? I wonder if they’re requiring something special be passed to the login form.

    Thanks!

    Solved this one and thought I’d post the solution in hopes it will help someone else. WPEngine has created a requirement it seems, for security reasons, that all hits to wp-login.php (like the login and forgot password forms in this plugin) have a parameter of wpe-login equalling the install name be attached. So, I had to modify the plugin’s tabbed-login.php file as such:

    <form method="post" action="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/wp-login.php" class="wp-user-form">

    to

    <form method="post" action="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/wp-login.php?wpe-login=[myinstallname]" class="wp-user-form">

    Replace [myinstallname] with your particular install’s name. This must also be added to the other form’s action URLs.

    Thanks for this!

    +1, made my day ??

    I am now closing this 6 month old topic as it references an older version of WordPress.
