Login Form:

Hi,

I am customizing the login page of my site. I would like to enable users to open the main page of my blog when they click on the logo. As an example I attach a picture for the WPMU login page. In this case when I click on the WPMU logo the WPMU homepage opens. I would like to do the same for my blog.
Please, could you tell me which template file should I work on?

Thank you.

Regards,

Andrea

Perhaps the following plugin would be of use to you:

https://premium.wpmudev.org/project/login-image

If you wanted to manually do this every time you upgrade your WP install (manually remove them from the update so it doesn't overwrite):

Take care.

Thank you Tim!
Actually I had installed the Theme My Login plugin. Then I added my logo. My problem is to change the link when one clicks on the logo. Is there any template to customize?
Many thanks,

Andrea

Hey.

Thats coded into the core.

Where would you want it pointing to?

Take care.

I would need it to point to my homepage.
Where should I look inside the core?
Thanks,

Andrea

Ahh I see, you are running in single site mode. Most of mine are multisite site.

/wp-login.php around line 82

<?php   if ( !is_multisite() ) { ?>
<div id="login"><h1><a href="<?php echo esc_url( apply_filters('login_headerurl', 'http://wordpress.org/') ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( apply_filters('login_headertitle', __( 'Powered by WordPress' ) ) ); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>
<?php   } else { ?>
<div id="login"><h1><a href="<?php echo esc_url( apply_filters('login_headerurl', network_home_url() ) ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( apply_filters('login_headertitle', $current_site->site_name ) ); ?>"><span class="hide"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></span></a></h1>
<?php   }

With this being a core edit, you would need to change it everytime you upgrade your install.

Take care.

Is there a way to avoid changing it after every upgrade?
Thanks,

Hey again Andrea.

Sure, I just popped this one up for you:

http://auroral.co.uk/2012/01/30/get-rid-of-those-wp-login-links/

It will use the url of you site, and the title (blog name) as well :slight_smile:

Take care.

I opened that link and clicked on the custom login link. I could then download a file called 'custom-login.php'. Where should I place it?
Thanks again.

Its just a normal plugin, so upload it to your plugins directory:

/wp-content/plugins/

The plugin structure should be:

/custom-loginlinksbegone/custom-login.php

So:

/wp-content/plugins/custom-loginlinksbegone/custom-login.php

Take care.

Hi,

I tried to modify the Login page of my Wordpress installation.
However I am not able to show it as expected.
Please, find attached a picture. I added the Theme Mylogin plugin.
It seems Wordpress uses the standard Style.css for the layout of the Login page.
I do not know the reason.
Many thanks,

Andrea

The Login page seems to be treated as a standard post page.
Thanks,
