InsiteLogin

This plugin insert the standard login procedure (login, logout, registration, password recovery) in a selected page of the site. This is made whith a few tricks:

• wp-login.php is fully processed, and his output parsed replacing all links to wp-login.php with links to current page
• an “init” hook redirect to login page when wp-login.php is invoked
• a “login_redirect” filter send to login page on login and logout

Login page can (and have to) be customized for logged in status: this is made through configuration subpanel under the Settings menu.

From 0.6 version, the page for logged-in users contain a sidebar called “insitelogin_sidebar”, placed after the text inserted into InsiteLogin options. Note that the generated sidebar will be parsed replacing any “%%logout%%” istance, so you can leave blank the option and use only the sidebar with a Text widget.

Pay attention: the content of the page selected to run the plugin is completely ignored!

ToDo

• wysiwyg in configuration
• maybe retrieve standard CSS for login box?
• customize the layout for insitelogin_sidebar
• shortcode for registration / login / retrieve pw

If you wish any other pretty feature, you’ve to ask me!

Are you sure that this plugin will work on my site?

Obviously no! I’ve tested it on some Apache and IIS Windows server… I’ll be happy if someone will inform me about any problem.

I’ve installed XYX plugin that alter the login/logout/registration process, will they work well with InsiteLogin?

I hope yes. The mechanics I use is (in theory) fully integrated with standard login, and so any plugin altering wp-login.php can also alter InsiteLogin. I’ve tested with Register Plus and works very well.

Why require WP 2.5? Will it works with earlier version?

I think it can work, but I’ve not tested… If someone can test, please report to me any inconvenience; I think this plugin can work with 2.3 versions, but I’m not sure.
