5 Plugins to Customize Your WordPress Login Page
Login and register pages act as the gateway to our websites. Nicely designed and well-branded login and register pages are what make your site stand out from the rest. If your site functions on user registration or has a members-only section, these login pages will probably help form the first impressions your visitors have of your service or product.
This warrants a look at customizable WordPress login pages (if you like to build your own, here is a handy tutorial), and the plugins that enable us to do so. There are various WordPress plugins that help to customize login and register pages, as well as protect the site in various ways from malicious attacks. On top of that, you can even customize the pages to reflect your branding or personality.
