Sidebar Login free WordPress plugin

Description

Sidebar Login adds a useful login widget which you can use to login from in the sidebar of your WordPress powered blog. Once a user logs in they are redirected back to the page they logged in from, rather than the admin panel (this is configurable). If you’d like to contribute code to the plugin you can do so via GitHub. If you’d like to contribute a translation, the project is hosted on WordPress.org. Usage Simply go to Appearance > Widgets and drag “sidebar login” to the sidebar of your choice. Within the widget are several options you can use for changing the titles or the links displayed to the user. To use this widget in a template, use the the_widget() function which WordPress provides. Tags for titles + links These tags can be used in the widget settings for titles + links and will be replaced at runtime. %username% – logged in users display name %userid% – logged in users ID %firstname% – logged in users firstname %lastname% – logged in users lastname %name% – logged in users firstname + lastname %nicename% – user nice name %admin_url% – url to WP admin %logout_url% – logout url %buddypress_profile_url% – Buddypress Profile URL %bbpress_profile_url% – Buddypress Profile URL %avatar% – User Avatar Filter Reference sidebar_login_include_css – return false to not include the CSS stylesheet sidebar_login_widget_logged_in_links – An array of links shown when logged in. sidebar_login_widget_logged_out_links – An array of links shown when logged out. sidebar_login_widget_display – Return false to hide the widget. sidebar_login_widget_logged_in_title – The widget title shown when logged in. sidebar_login_widget_avatar_size – The avatar size – defaulted to 38 (thats in px) sidebar_login_widget_logged_out_title – The widget title shown when logged out. sidebar_login_widget_form_args – Arguments for the wp_login_form function. sidebar_login_widget_login_redirect – Redirect URL after login. sidebar_login_widget_logout_redirect – the redirect after logging
