How can I do customizations on login, registration and password recovery forms?

August 2, 2022 by Magenaut

There are a couple of answers here basically just linking to a plugin – to be fair there are some more specific ones too. I know there are many possibilities to use different hooks for the customization. I really want to learn more about that, but where do it start?

What’s the easiest way to stop WP from ever logging me out

August 3, 2022August 2, 2022 by Magenaut

After a certain amount of time WP logs out all users and forces them to log back in again. For development environments on my local machine this is obnoxious and absolutely unnecessary.

How to show ‘login error’ and ‘lost password’ on my template page?

August 3, 2022August 2, 2022 by Magenaut

I’m providing front-end login in a template, using the function wp_login_form. It handles the redirection after login and logout pretty neatly! But if the username / password mismatch, or are non existent, the user is redirected to the admin login page, with the shaky js error. Also same is the case when I’m trying to reset the password, it takes me to the me backend page where I have to enter my email for resetting the password. I want to show both these activities on my template. Is there a way I could do this?

How to use current_user_can()?

August 3, 2022August 2, 2022 by Magenaut

Because it’s not working for me. This code checks if a user has just registered. I want to redirect him to a custom page if so. Otherwise, redirect him to the homepage or admin page.

Redirect to referring page after logging in

August 3, 2022August 2, 2022 by Magenaut

I am not using any custom login plugins or any bespoke code. A few of my pages have got this bit of code in them at the very beginning.

Limiting sessions to one IP at a time

August 3, 2022August 2, 2022 by Magenaut

On a site with premium user account subscriptions, I’d like to be able to limit logins to one computer at a time. The most straightforward way to accomplish this would be to limit by IP, but I haven’t had any luck finding a plugin to accomplish this. Does anybody know of one I can use to get this functionality?

Add log in link to menu in Twenty Twelve

August 2, 2022August 1, 2022 by Magenaut

I can’t find a way to add the log in link to the new theme of WordPress, Twenty Twelve.
