Forward: Custom Login Page

Skildring

Forward: Custom Login Page gives administrators a focused, native settings screen for making the WordPress login page feel like the rest of their site.

Use it to:

• Replace the WordPress login logo with your own logo.
• Start from polished presets such as Calm Editorial, Forward Purple, Graphite, Nordic Green, and High Contrast.
• Add a background image and choose whether it fills the page, shows fully, repeats as a pattern, or stays centered.
• Set login page background, box, text, link, button, focus, and input colors.
• Add a welcome heading, short intro text, and optional footer note.
• Hide default login elements such as the language switcher, back-to-site link, privacy link, Remember me control, and lost password/register links.
• Preview the login page while editing.
• Check the main login color pairs against WCAG AA contrast while editing.
• Reset to the plugin defaults at any time.

The plugin keeps the login form lightweight and uses WordPress» normal login workflow. It does not replace authentication, intercept passwords, or add external dependencies.

Privacy

This plugin stores its login page settings in your WordPress database. It does not collect analytics, send telemetry, process submitted login credentials, or make requests to external services.

If you choose a logo or background image from the media library, the selected image URLs are stored as part of the plugin settings.

Accessibility

WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance is a release requirement for the settings screen and the login interface generated by the plugin’s defaults and presets:

• Controls use native form elements with labels.
• Keyboard focus remains visible.
• The default color palette meets AA contrast requirements.
• The live contrast gate checks text, links, focus indicators, buttons, and input boundaries and rejects settings that fail.
• The login page reflows on narrow screens and at high zoom.
• Motion is minimal and respects reduced-motion preferences.

Administrators remain responsible for checking custom logos and background images, translated or customized text, and the surrounding WordPress installation. WCAG conformance applies to complete pages, so the plugin cannot certify themes, other plugins, or third-party content outside its interface.
