How to customize the redirected login

    Hey there,

    I’m using the plugin to restrict access to a CF7 form to the role subcriber. Which works great:

    I use a URL with parameters, the plugin redirects to the default WordPress login page, after logging in as a subscriber the user is redirected back to the form and the parameters are retained and prefill the form.

    So far so good, but I need to tell the user before login where he finds his user name and password. Can I customize the WordPress Login?

    If I only restricted acess to the CF7 form block on the page and added an explanation above and a link to the login page, would the user be redirected back after login and would the parameters still be retained?

    Cheers form Germany,

    Hi Martin,

    You might need a different plugin if you want to customize the default WordPress login. Content Control is unable to do that.

    For your last question, since you’re now going to use a shortcode to restrict the form block, Content Control is only limited to restricting that block. However, since you mentioned using URL parameters, given that the restriction rule is in place, that might still work. Have you given it a try?

    Hi Kim, I tried …

    [content_control logged_out="1"]
<!-- wp:loginout {"displayLoginAsForm":true} /--> 
[/content_control]

    … but that didn’t work.

    I think I’ll try a plugin that allows me to customize the login page.

    Cheers, -M

    Hi @mniggemann,

    Thanks a lot for the response.

    Currently, the redirect to login page in our plugin only works on the default WordPress login page, so yes, your best bet would be to try another plugin that lets you customize the default WordPress login page.

    Cheers!
