Customized login page

  • I would like to customize the login/registration pages so that they have the same look and feel of my site. I suspect that this can be done with the wp-login.php and/or wp-admin.css, but I wanted to check first before I screwed something up. I thought there might be a tutorial somewhere so that, if it is the wp-admin.css, the relevant selectors might be described so I don’t have guess. TIA

  • I didn’t log it as a bug….. but as a possible feature…. but the only place to do that is in the bug tracker…. I never once said it was a bug… an oversite perhapse, and inconvineint too, but not a bug.

    What I did was:

    -Remove link to admin stylesheet.
    -Add link to my current theme’s stylesheet.
    -Add in my own markup to specify my header and general layout (you may have to view the source of one of your normal pages if you’re unfamilar with how yours goes).
    -Remove all references of “id=login”, “id=email”, etc etc that refers to something that was obviously in the admin CSS.
    Change <div id=”login”> to <div id=”entry”>
    -Save, upload, and basque in its glory!

    **Remember, you must do all the above steps twice – once each in two different locations. Browse through wp-login.php to find that “two” actual pages are really in there.

    I got these errors

    Warning: extract(): First argument should be an array in /home/*******/public_html/********/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1733

    The error refers to this line in wp-includes/functions.php

    extract($wp_query->query_vars);

    Any help?

    The error relates to the load_template() function. Are you attempting to call up a theme template in wp-login.php?

    I added in these lines:

    <?php get_header(); ?>
    <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    And changed the routing for the CSS sheet

    Try adding this just before the get_header() call:

    <?php include('./wp-blog-header.php'); ?>

    Didn’t work – I have 1.5 If it;d help

    What happens when you take out the three template calls (and replace with the content in the header/sidebar/footer files)?

    It works if I copy the “contents” of the files into their respective places. Using includes doesn’t work

    I don’t know it this will help, but I have documented how I managed this in an article here:

    https://brams.dk/2005/05/18/building-a-member-site/

    Works just fine – especially when combined with a customized fronpage on the admin interface.

    If I wanted to customized the frontpage for only level 0 users what files should I edit? Also is there a guide on how to go about doing it??

    Why do I get a pop-up request for a username and password every time I load my blog page (www.mylifeinstockholm.com)?

    I am using the Default theme.

    Please, I’m very new and find PHP difficult, so explain in terms laymen can use.

    Thanks!

    maggiecurran, you ought to have started your OWN thread for this, dont you think? But since you decided it would be easier to hikack another thread:

    1. You need to update your site to 2.0.4

    From your source:
    <meta name="generator" content="WordPress 1.5.2" /> <!-- leave this for stats -->

    2. to answer your question, youve implemented mod_auth somewhere on your site. Read this:
    https://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_auth.html
