Simple and effective, after so many years

RGZ February 16, 2022
After eight years using this plugin on dozens of sites, I can't find another custom login plugin so reliable, simple and lean.

Excellent Plugin

Ken Haynes January 28, 2022
Does exactly what it says it does, and it does it well. Thank you Libin.

Diamond in a Rough

Jason Caudill February 6, 2021
Great plug-in - my guess is it would have 500,000 downloads if it had a marketing machine behind it. I search high and low for something similar the better part of a month and this little gem never surfaced in google or any other blog. If you want a clean look and redirects for the standard WP login/ register pages look no further. Simple enough for a novice to nail down in an hour of tweaking. Thanks and great job!

Its awesome plugin.

tasgheer January 29, 2021

Awesome!
