Do you want to create a custom login page for your WordPress site? A custom login page lets you customize the page for users to sign up for your site instead of using the default WordPress login page. In this article, we will show you how to create a custom login page for WordPress without writing any code.
For the first method in our video, we will be using the Theme My Login plugin found here:
With that installed and activated the plugin will attempt to use your theme’s styling to create a login page. You can customize the plugin’s settings under the TML settings area. This allows you to allow custom emails and even redirection through the plugin.
For our second method, we will be using the premium version of WPForms found here:
https://wpforms.com
You will be given a zip file that you would upload under Plugins, Add New, and click the upload button at the top of the page. Activate the plugin and it will take you to the WPForms welcome page. Activate the product key for the site and in the addons area, we will activate the user registration addon.
With the plugin and it’s addon active, create a new form, name it, and create a new User Login Form. By default it will have a username and password field set up for use and in the settings you can decide where the user goes after logging in. All you need to do now is go to a page, add any customizations you would like, and then click the add form button to select and insert the code for your form to appear on that page when you publish it.

Question:
I have so many pluggins and I use each for like one feature it provides but I am wondering if it messing things up
I have
Woocommerce customer accounts
Mailchimp

WPForms
Supersocializer
So lets say I use WPforms to design a login for my website. How could I connect somones social media account to the general login that they just did? Would it not just create 2 accounts or lets say someone put their email in optinmonster to get a coupon created an account to buy something in woocommerce logged in on my WPforms sign in sheet then posted something to social media. Would that not register as 4 different acounts on my website how would I know. I want people to come back and not have to create an account again once they already did it.
