Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

LoginGlow is a lightweight, beginner-friendly plugin that lets you transform the default WordPress login page into a branded, professional experience — without writing a single line of CSS.

Whether you’re building for a client, running a membership site, or just want your login page to match your brand, LoginGlow gives you everything you need in a clean, intuitive settings panel.

🎨 Core Features

  • Custom Logo — Upload your own logo via the WordPress Media Library
  • Background Customization — Set a background color, image, background size, and repeat mode
  • Overlay — Add a color overlay with adjustable opacity over your background
  • Button Colors — Customize the login button’s background, text, and hover colors
  • Form Styling — Control border radius and toggle drop shadow on the login form card
  • Link Color — Style “Lost your password?” and other links

🚀 Advanced Features

  • Live Preview — See your changes reflected in real time before you save
  • Pre-built Templates — Three one-click styles: Minimal, Dark, and Gradient
  • Redirect System — Custom redirects after login and after logout
  • Reset to Defaults — One-click button to restore all original settings

🛡️ Security & Login Protection

  • Custom Login URL — Replace the default wp-login.php with your own secret slug; direct access to the old URL is blocked automatically to hide your login from bots
  • Login Attempt Limiting — Automatically lock out an IP address after a configurable number of failed login attempts, for a configurable duration
  • Active Lockouts Panel — View currently blocked IPs with the attempted username, failed-attempt count, and lock time; unlock any IP individually or clear all lockouts at once
  • Auto-Expiring Lockouts — Blocks are stored persistently and release themselves automatically when the lockout period ends

⚙️ How It Works

  • Go to Settings → LoginGlow
  • Upload your logo, choose colors, and pick a template (optional)
  • Watch the live preview update as you make changes
  • Click Save Settings — and you’re done!
