Login screen: 'ERROR: The username field is empty' (5 posts)

    Any time I try to log in to any of my blogs, the login screen's Username prompt is preceded by the pink box that informs me: "ERROR: The username field is empty." It's almost like this warning is on by default, regardless of any prior attempts. How can I correct the login process to make this warning appear only when appropriate?

    WordPress 2.8.4, PHP 5.2.9

    i found the problem. it seems to be the login lockdown plugin. i disabled it, but maybe a contact to the author would be better? i had the problem. to find a problem next time, use a solution that is very similar to the problem you have. like login screens, lockdown and others can make your login screen malfunction, and when creating a user in mu (multi-user), something that is related to the database would cause it to stop working. like the plugin statpress it is not compatible with wordpress mu. it took me at least 1 hour to find out the problem.

    Thanks! I'm not sure I'm seeing this error anymore with Login LockDown v1.4, released this past Saturday.
