Excellent plug-in but it doesn’t look quite right in Safari. This is what it looks like on my monitor.

But it looks fine in Firefox. Just throwing that out there!

Thanks Rich. I will take a look at the .css. Seems to be a border around the form in Safari that the other browsers do not show. Will update as soon as I have a fix.

hey kerry! this is great. thanks for taking the time to do this and make it available to the rest of us!

Rich, Thanks for pointing that out. I probably wouldn’t have checked it otherwise. Here is how I was able to get rid of it.

#loginform {
border: none;
-moz-box-shadow:none;
-webkit-box-shadow: none;
-khtml-box-shadow: none;
box-shadow: none;

Credit should really go to Josh Byers’ plugin at Pressing Pixels who credits Ben Gillbanks as well. I liked Kerry’s plugin way better, since it had more comments in the css to get a beginner like me started, but I was able to find this tidbit in Josh’s css file.

YOU ARE THE BEST MAN!

The download link doesn´t work. all I get is a “Not Found”.

I have the same problem. I can’t get the download link to work. Any ideas?

awesome plugin… oh and for the guys that the links not working…. try adding .zip to the end of the link and it should work… was having the same issue initially.. now to start tweaking the plugin.

thanks agains.

@Tompa/@Ted – The download link is fixed now. An update to the WP Download Counter plugin didn’t like the uppercase letters in the download links. You should be good to go.

@JR – If you make a cool mod please share. We are all interested in improvements. Thanks.

Nice Plugin, thank you!

Cool plug-in. Thanks!

Its nice plugin.. thanks you…

Is the plugin compatible with wordpress 2.8+? What about WPMU? Thanks.

This is a great plugin! Thanks very much.

However, I have noticed that by default the error message of “ERROR: The username field is empty.” seems to come up by default when I go to the login screen. Not a huge deal, but noticable (even with remember me) checked. I am using WP 2.8.4.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Cool trick. love it plugin

Kerry,

It seams that WordPress has made some changing to their login screen. This causes this plugin to show the background image twice. I think they removed the main background image and are adding it another way. I checked out your login form and you seam to have the problem as well. I’m using Firefox 3.5 and WP 2.8.6.

Thanks,
Brooke

Kerry, I found the issues! It was only showing up in Firefox 3.5 I think this may be the first browser that supports css3 which is what was causing the issue. I fixed it by changing :

#login form {
margin-top: 0px;
}

to:
#login form {
margin-top: 0px;
-moz-box-shadow: none !important;
}

The new layout also seems to have a text-shadow around the nav links and the #login form submit elements I fixed this by adding “text-shadow:none !important” to the effected elements.

I also found a bug where if you press the submit button it defaults back to the original WP down state blue graphic. This can be fixed by adding:
#login form input:active {
background: url( images/fade-button-hover.png ) !important;
}

I added a new graphic called fade-button-hover.png but you could use the already made fade-button.png i just wanted a darker gradient. I also chose to have the active image show on hover and down. Again this is optional.

Thank you so much for your hard work on this and hope you find my suggestions/bugs useful. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions.

Brooke

Wow! Thanks for the bug hunt. I will make these changes and incorporate into the next release. Awesome, thanks again.

Hey Kerry, Great work!!! I am looking forward for your next release (wp.2.9 compatible )
In case it helps, fyi – when you click on the have you forgotten your password link and then on the next screen you click cancel… you go back to the login screen but in a reduced sized and your logo therefore is overlapped by the form fields.
