Custom Login URL

Thank you for getting in touch. I’m pleased to hear you like the plugin!

It’s great that editing the files at least achieves what you want.

A couple of customers have also required the login URL to be changed, so we will add that as an option (or at least as a WordPress filter) in upcoming premium/enterprise versions.

We may add it to the free version too, but we will need to weigh up the likelihood of it causing issues if easy to change against needing some support from us to guide the small number of users who need the URL to be changed.

Anyway, for now I’m glad you got things working on your site. Please get in touch by email ([email protected]) if you’d like to discuss in more detail, including how/when we will be able to add support for this requirement.

Thanks,

Dan

Great to hear, thanks Dan! As a developer who would use filter functionality if it existed, makes sense. For a possibly lower hanging fruit option, development wise and support wise, I may recommend simply a text field that is pre filled called “login url”… it could be defaulted to “wp-login.php” but I could just change it to “login/” if that’s what I wanted.

Even easier; instead of a manual override option, if you just simply coded with the <?php echo wp_login_url( $redirect ); ?> variable, it should work. At least in my case, the plugin I’m using modifies that variable, so if you were to call on it, it would give you my correctly modified URL. Hope this can be helpful! And hope to see at least the variable replacement pushed through to all versions soon.

Great work!

Thank you for the suggestions – I’ll take a closer look.

hi

This plugin looks really great for seamless integration that we are trying to do. I came across this post as Theme My Login Plugin causes an issue with this plugin. I’m looking for a filter that I may use or a solution that can allow Theme My login and Google Apps Login plugins to be used. Is there a solution possible or the plugins must be used in a mutually exclusive manner?

Thanks,
Mit.

Mit,

Since this forum thread was first written, we have added a filter that might help you. I haven’t tried it alongside Theme My Login, but it is possible it will help.

Details are under gal_login_url here:

Please could you get in touch over email so we can discuss further: [email protected]

Thanks,

Thanks much Dan for looking into this. I’ll explore the option you provided and if I fumble, I’ll seek your guidance.

Thanks,
Mit.
