Straight forward and well documented

I like this plugin, it’s simple to start with and well documented if you need to dive deeper into modifications.

by SJW

Does exactly what it advertises

Perfect – I just wanted a simple plugin that formatted the registration and login pages. I would like the existing WP login and register pages to redirect to these but not a big deal – and I don’t

by Emilio Lejit

Perfect plugin, works like a charm and does what it’s suppose to do.

Magnificent plugin.
