This plugin utilizes the shortcode [login_form] to present users with login form, lost password recovery and password reset fields on the front end of a WordPress site. The plugin heavily filters login and authentication urls to keep visitors from being sent to wp-login.php. It does not prevent a user from going directly to wp-login. The plugin blocks all non administrators from accessing the dashboard by doing a redirect to the homepage.
This plugin is designed for use with Gravity Forms by Rocketgenius, Inc., presenting a visitor a standard login box in place of forms which are restricted to logged in users only. It can also be used with other plugins that show content for non-logged in users, such as User Status Shortcode By Story Block Media.
A few notes about this plugin:
- Plugin not tested with WordPress Network
- Password reset and password recovery are all done on the page with the shortcode
