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
As well as the WordPress template tag wp_login_form(), the plugin comes with 1 additional template tag and 2 shortcodes:
login_errors()[login_errors][login_form]
The plugin compatible with BuddyPress and other plugins that use the default WordPress login page.
