Please ignore, I figured it out :-)

Fantastic! Thanks for your help!

Hi Cristian,

One more question about my login page.

If the user enters “bad” credentials in the login form, he/she is redirected to wp-login.php, which again defeats my purpose of staying within my theme.

How can I rout bad logins to my own login page?

TIA,

Moty

Thanks Cristian.

With regards to the free registration form – I found the paypal pro short code and used it. It is working fine. The one question I have is how to add a check box for asking the user whether they’d like to subscribe to the newsletter as well?

With regards to the login form, I created a new shortcode using the php method, and placed it in a new page. This works fine. However the following issues still bother me:

1) The form renders a bit wierd. See an image here: http://www.sugarbutterflour.com/images/login.jpg

I tried to tweak the code that generates this form (/includes/classes/login-widget.inc), however was not able to get the password input box to have the same width as the Username input box. Can you please let me know what do I need to do in order to get the password box to be identical to the Username box?

2) When I click the “forgot password” link on the Login form, I am being redirected to wp-login.php with action=lostpassword, which is not what I want. I would like this to connect to my own “lost password” page. Is there a shortcode or PHP function that I could use to generate the form within the current “lost password” page? If so, I can make my own page. But then the question remains how to direct the “forgot password” in on the login form to use my own page rather than the wp-login?

3) If the user times out, how do I customize the page they are redirected to? I need them to be notified of a time-out and then redirected to my own login page rather than to wp-login.

Thanks for your help, very much appreciated.

Thanks for your response, Christian.

As a follow up question regarding your suggestion of using custom capabilities. I already watched that video and thought about this option. However, my understanding was that custom capabilities could only be used for level 1 – meaning that users will have to be paying members in order to buy access to pages, which defeats my objective.

What I really need is a capability for “free” members (non-paying) to be able to purchase access to any page that is protected under membership restriction as a one off transaction, which grants them lifetime access to the pages they purchased. However, users MUST be able to purchase such access WITHOUT being paying subscribers (my plan was to use conditionals to display both “buy this page” AND “become a member” buttons if a level 0 subscriber is detected on a certain page).

In effect, this means that I need to be able to define custom capabilities for level zero, which I thought is not possible. Am I wrong about this?

Thanks for your help,
