 * I was wanting to have a custom login page for my site. Instead of having [http://www.domain.com/wp-login](http://www.domain.com/wp-login)
   I would want [http://www.domain.com/login](http://www.domain.com/login). What
   is the best Plugin for that, and is there one that would grab from my current
   theme. Or is using the Codex in the custom login the best way. Anything is appreciated,
   thank you.

 * My advice is to keep wp-login.php, but if you really need to change it, here 
   is a solution from a couple years ago:

 * You’ll need to edit the .htaaccess file and change any references to wp-login.

 * Thanks, but what I was looking for was a way to have my users login with a different
   page, every time I make the login page it doesnt redirect to actual login, what
   is the code or link I need to use to make that happen? I’m using buddy press.

 * The general advice you’ll hear is to never ever hack the WordPress core files.
 * One option might be to use .htaccess to mask the URL. Have you looked into that
   option? I’ll see if I can find the exact code.

 * This plugin might be a good fit for you:

 * Then you’ll need to install another plugin to style the login page to suit your
   needs. I don’t know of any plugins that will automatically use the theme’s style.
