What it does
Standard WordPress login and registration send visitors to a separate page, which interrupts whatever they were reading or doing. This plugin opens a modal window on top of the current page instead, so people can sign in or register and keep going. Facebook login is included as a social option, and optional reCAPTCHA helps keep bot registrations out. For sites built on BuddyPress, the registration form can include the extra fields BuddyPress adds.
Setup is handled through your menu or a shortcode. You can drag the login element into a navigation menu or place the shortcode in posts and pages wherever you want it to appear. There are three button types to pick from: a full login box, a login button or a register button. Predefined styles cover the visual side, and anyone comfortable with code can add custom CSS to match their branding. The layout is responsive and retina ready, so it works on phones and high resolution desktop screens.
Best for
- Membership sites that want quick sign in from any page
- BuddyPress communities needing extra registration fields
- Blogs and sites wanting Facebook login for visitors
