Hi Support
Currently when user click on login, they will be redirected to a new page (the default wordpress login)
How do I change this?
I am wishing to have the login form embedded within the main body. I notice there is a KLEO login widget (but this can only be inserted in the sidebar)
How do i create a custom login page with Forgot your password link?

thank you

Hi, for creating a login page you will have to firstly add a new sidebar called “Login”, after that you’ll have to go to ” Appearance > Widgets “, add the “BuddyPress Login” widget to the Login sidebar, and after that, go and create a new page, called “Login” in which you’ll have to add with Visual Composer, the “Widgetised Sidebar” element.

For the login redirect you could use the following plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/peters-login-redirect/

Let me know if I can help you with anything else.
Cheers

unfortunately, i’m hoping to have login page to be set to http://domain/login instead of wp-login
The above solution only works after login

That’s not true. Read the first paragraph again.

If you want the WP login form, then google for a way to add a permalink to wp-login.php. Otherwise, if you follow the directions Andrei gave you, you can have the buddypress login form on /login. And since its done using VC you can add any of the other shortcodes, style it how you want and a link to reset the password.

Help me, I cannot find it!
There are some WordPress Widgets in the element selection, but no sidebars. (The new sidebar “Login” with the Buddypress login was added.)

Thanks a lot.
