Want a sign-in page that doesn’t look like the WordPress default? Login Boilerplate is a lightweight plugin that allows you to truly personalise your website’s login form.

Login Boilerplate lets you assign a special login page, which you can then style however you want.

1. Create a new login page in WordPress
2. Build a template in your theme
3. Tell Login Boilerplate about it

Most tutorials and plugins change the header and footer of WordPress’s wp-login.php page. Alternatively, you could embed a form on a page or sidebar using wp_login_form() but if your login attempt fails – you are again taken to wp-login.php
