A small plugin to have a nicer looking login-logout page for Wordpress. It uses the prototype javascript framework.

Download plugin

Installation

Just simply unzip the files under your wp-content/plugins directory, and then activate it under the admin interface.

The plugin will “redefine” the behavior of the wp_loginout and wp_register functions, and add a login/register form on your site as a nice popup.

The plugin uses the prototype javascript framework, but you don’t have to bother with it, because the script will copy itself under your wp-includes/js directory. So make sure it is writable.

If you already have the prototype file, and would like to use it from an other place, then set the PROTOTYPE_LOADED constant somewhere in your template (I would suggest you the header.php file).
Possible setup

There is not yet any options page to set up the two possible properties of the plugin, but you can do it easily in the code.

• Define the wrapper html elements for the links (deafults to
• and

)

• Define whether to show the registration form when you call the wp_register function (defaults to true)

TODOs

An options page for the mentioned setup

Possible problems

If you use any other plugins that build on the loginout and register filters, their function will probably get lost.

No support

I wrote this plugin for a website (postagalamb.hu). Given that my main job is not web-development (but economics), I don’t have the necessary time to give a general support. Please try to use the WP-forum, mailing lists and the like to get support. Only ask me, if you are ready to pay for the answers.
