BuddyX

WP Login - Logo

Free theme

Put your own logo on the WordPress login screen (wp-login.php) without touching a single line of code.


WP Login logo controls

By default, every WordPress site shows the WordPress "W" logo above the login form. BuddyX free lets you swap that for your own logo and control its size and spacing, so the page members and admins log in through actually looks like your site.

Where to find it

Appearance -> Customize -> WP Login -> Logo

Nothing here changes until you turn the section on. Flip Customize Your Logo Section to Yes and the rest of the controls appear.

First-time tip: If you are happy with the default WordPress logo, you can skip this whole section. It is optional, and leaving it off is perfectly fine.

Settings

Setting Default What it does
Customize Your Logo Section Off (No) Master switch for this section. Turn it On to reveal the logo controls below. While Off, the login page keeps the default WordPress logo.
Disable Logo? Off (No) Turn On to hide the logo area entirely, showing just the login form with no image. When On, the image and size controls are hidden.
Custom Logo Empty The image shown above the login form. Upload or pick from your media library.
Logo Width 84px Width of the logo image, in pixels.
Logo Height 84px Height of the logo image, in pixels.
Logo Space Bottom 0px Gap in pixels between the logo and the login form below it. Increase it to give the logo room to breathe.
Logo URL Empty Where clicking the logo takes the visitor. Leave empty to use your site home.
Logo Title Empty Tooltip text shown when hovering the logo.
Login Page Title Empty Text shown as the login page title. Leave empty to use the WordPress default.

Set a square logo? Keep Width and Height equal (the 84px x 84px default is square). For a wide, horizontal logo, raise the Width and lower the Height to match your image's shape so it does not stretch.

Quick answer: "Which ones do I actually need?" For most sites, just Custom Logo plus a matching Logo Width and Logo Height. The rest are optional polish.

BuddyX free vs BuddyX Pro

BuddyX free covers the login logo: your own image, its width, height, bottom spacing, click URL, hover title, and page title - plus a switch to hide the logo entirely. That is everything in this section.

BuddyX free does NOT restyle the login form itself. The input fields, the "Log In" button, the background, the "forgot password" screen, and ready-made login skins all keep their standard WordPress look.

Want to theme the whole login page - form styling, buttons, backgrounds, and login skins to match your brand? That is BuddyX Pro.
