Building Your Website, Step-By-Step

RYO Member Access Widget

RYO Member Access Widget provides a sidebar widget that displays user login fields and, when logged
in, logout and user information links. In addition, you can add custom text to display when not
logged in, and when logged in personalized information may be displayed.

This isn’t the first login widget you’ve seen, by any means. But it’s clean and customizable. I really like the redirection options. And I like being able to changing the title line on login to display the user’s name.

The widget's user interface also lets you replace the WordPress logo on the standard login, password reset and registration pages with a generic 'Member Center' logo.

We've also found our users get confused when trying to reset their passwords because they don't quite 'get' that it's a two email process. Thestandard message on the Reset Password screen is a bit misleading. So we've added capability to change that text.
