    I tested your plugin today, and it does a very good job at providing a nice and easy way to customise the login page. Thank you !

    The only feature that I am missing, is being able to add a welcome message on the login page.

    The idea is to provide information to users accessing the page, by displaying a short text (ideally, rich-text/html), for example between the logo and the username field (like a nicely styled box).

    Would it be possible to implement this ? Or alternatively, is there some way that the provided templates can be edited/customized to add this without releasing a new plugin version ?

    Cheers
    Damien

  • @dregad Hi,

    I hope you are doing well.

    Thanks for the suggestion; let me look into it, and if possible, we will add this in our future release.

    Thanks for considering it, I hope you can do it. Looking forward to hearing back from you.

    @dregad Sure.

    You can add text with some php code (obviously put your own text in):

    function custom_login_message() {
$message = "<p><strong>Welcome to the Care Hospice Bereavement website. <br>This website is restricted to the families of Care Hospice. <br>Please login to continue.<br><br>If you do not know your login information <br>please email [email protected] <br> The login information will be sent to you on the next business day.<br> Thank you.</strong></p>";
return $message;
}
add_filter('login_message', 'custom_login_message');

    To see what it looks like, the site is here.

    @care2michelle thanks for your suggestion, I see how it looks on your site and that’s pretty much what I had in mind.

    Pardon my ignorance, but I’m not sure where I’m supposed to insert this PHP code, can you please explain ?

    @dregad I’m not a coder, so I don’t ever directly modify my theme’s code. I use a plugin called WP Code. It’s free and super easy to use. Here’s an article that walks you through the process of how to add code using that plugin. I hope that helps.

    I would like this same feature. Thanks for this thread!

    @carricdesign Noted; the team is working on the new feature and will try to add this soon.

    Thanks
