Title: [Plugin: SimpleModal Login] simplemodal login Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: SimpleModal Login] simplemodal login * Resolved [am5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/am5/) * (@am5) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simplemodal-login-simplemodal-login/) * So after looking high and low, this plugin was exactly what I was looking for, although I can’t quite figure out how to get it working how I would like. * I would like to have a “log in” menu item on my nav bar that would open up the log in page, is this possible? * Also, I couldn’t get the “wp_loginout()” to work, so when I manually added the registation link to a widget for the time being. * If I want both the “log in/out” and register feature, do I need to add both: * a href=”/wp-login.php”>Log In and a href=”/wp-login.php?action=register”>Register * Any help would be greatly appreciated. * Thanks for a great plugin!

The menu item is showing up, but the form is not coming up when clicked on, it’s only taking me to the page. * Is this the incorrect placement? * Thanks for your support! * [bazsowiczz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bazsowiczz/) * (@bazsowiczz) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simplemodal-login-simplemodal-login/#post-1713026) * I’m interested in this question too. * So, after we created a new menu with Custom Links directs to wp-login.php, what we should add to the URL or Title Attribute fields to make the modal works? * Cheers! * [0v3rki11](https://wordpress.org/support/users/0v3rki11/) * (@0v3rki11) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simplemodal-login-simplemodal-login/#post-1713063) * im having the same issue. * Plugin Author [Eric](https://wordpress.org/support/users/emartin24/) * (@emartin24) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simplemodal-login-simplemodal-login/#post-1713064) * I just finally figured it out 😉 * On the Menus page, click the ‘Screen Options’ link on the top right. In the “ drop down”, select ‘CSS Classes’ under ‘Show advanced menu properties’. * Now, for the link you want to use to trigger SimpleModal Login, enter `simplemodal- login` under ‘CSS Classes (optional)’. * Now the menu should trigger SimpleModal Login when clicked! * Sorry for the delay and thanks for your patience… * [0v3rki11](https://wordpress.org/support/users/0v3rki11/) * (@0v3rki11) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simplemodal-login-simplemodal-login/#post-1713065) * Gah!! that did, you brilliant bastage!! * I’ve tried EVERYTHING and never even knew that option was there in the menus area. I even went so far as to try and create HTML/PHP files to execute the script and link to them with no luck. * THANK YOU for figuring that out. Just for that feel free to send me a 120×600 tower banner ad and i’ll throw it into the ad rotation on Cubicle101.com for free. 🙂 * Plugin Author [Eric](https://wordpress.org/support/users/emartin24/) * (@emartin24) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simplemodal-login-simplemodal-login/#post-1713067) * 0v3rki11 – Glad that worked for you.
