New WordPress Login Page

I’ve backported the new WordPress login page to be used in 2.0.4 or maybe previous version WordPress. The new login page currently available only on WordPress.com and 2.1.

Grab the files

You can either download the files containing the CSS style sheet and background image or the diff file which both are based on WordPress 2.0.4.

Choose 1 of the following downloads:

  • Download zip containing CSS files and background image (recommended).
  • Download diff.

Using it

Make necessary backup to your current wp-admin/wp-admin.css. Download and extract the zip file to your WordPress installation root folder. It will attempt to overwrite your current wp-admin.css. If everything goes OK, you’ll see the new login page on your blog. View your WordPress login page at http://url.com/wp-login.php (depends on your installation).

Have fun!

Hello,

Thanks for a great contribution. However, I think I messed up in the process of uploading it. The css seems to be intact, but the images does not show. Do I upload the images individually or as the folder “images” into the root folder?

Thanks and regards,
Bob

Zeo

Bob, the image should reside at /wp-admin/images/ folder.

Bob

Thanks Zeo, you’re a saviour.

Great Login PAGE design!!
I have got one problem, the background image of of th elogin page is shown but not of the “login-bkg-bottom.gif”. I copied it to the same image folder as the “login-bkg-tile.gif”?
