Description
Ultimate Member Elementor widgets — style login, register, password reset, and member directories
Ultimate Member powers membership sites on hundreds of thousands of WordPress installs — but the default login page, register form, member directory, and profile pages rarely match your brand. This plugin is the Elementor addon built specifically for Ultimate Member: drag widgets onto any page, style every element visually, and publish. No CSS files, no shortcodes, no child theme.
Use it to design your Ultimate Member login form in Elementor, your register form, your password reset page, and a searchable member directory — all with native Elementor controls. Works with free Elementor. Elementor Pro is not required.

Style Ultimate Member login, register, and password reset in Elementor — free
Your login page is the first authenticated experience every member has. It should look like your site — not a plain Ultimate Member default.
UM Login & Register Form — One widget for both form types. Drag the Ultimate Member login or register form into any Elementor page and style inputs, labels, buttons, backgrounds, typography, padding, and shadows. Switch between Login and Register from the Content tab. Editor hints guide you when the widget is not on the recommended UM core page. Supports any UM form. Works with free Elementor. Tutorial
Password Reset — Style the Ultimate Member password reset page to match your login and register forms. A consistent authentication flow reduces drop-off and builds member trust.
Build a member directory in Elementor — free
Member Directory Grid — Display Ultimate Member users in a responsive card or list layout. AJAX live search updates results as visitors type. Filter by user role or custom UM meta fields without a page reload. Three pagination modes: numbered pages, Load More, or Infinite Scroll. One to six responsive columns.

FAQ
-
How do I style the Ultimate Member login page in Elementor?

Install the plugin, open your login page in the Elementor editor, and add the UM Login & Register Form widget. Choose the Login form type in the Content tab. Use the Style tab to change colors, fonts, input borders, button styles, background, padding, and spacing. Every change updates in real time. Publish when done. No CSS, child theme, or shortcodes required. Step-by-step guide: How to Style the Ultimate Member Login Page with Elementor.
-
How do I style the Ultimate Member register form in Elementor?
-
Use the same UM Login & Register Form widget. Switch the form type to Register in the Content tab, then style field labels, inputs, section headers, submit button, and error messages visually. Both login and register are included free.
-
Can I style the Ultimate Member password reset page in Elementor?
-
Yes. The Password Reset widget is included free. Style it to match your login and register forms so the full authentication flow looks consistent.
-
How do I build a member directory in Elementor?
-
Add the Member Directory Grid widget. Choose card or list layout, enable AJAX live search, add role or custom field filters, and configure pagination (numbered, Load More, or Infinite Scroll). Use WP: User Directory if you only need native WordPress users without Ultimate Member. Full walkthrough: Create a WordPress Membership Directory in Elementor. Widget reference: User Directory Grid docs.
-
Do I need Elementor Pro?
-
No. All free widgets work with the free version of Elementor. Pro widgets also work with free Elementor.
-
Does this work without Ultimate Member?
-
Ultimate Member is recommended but not required. The WP: User Directory widget runs on any WordPress site. Login, register, password reset, directory grid, flip cards, avatar, profile fields, and user name widgets require Ultimate Member.
-
Can I filter my member directory by custom Ultimate Member fields?
-
Yes. The free Member Directory Grid supports AJAX meta field filters with no page reload. The free version supports up to two filter fields. Pro adds a standalone Member Filter widget with unlimited fields, dropdowns, checkboxes, and radio buttons.
-
Can I show only approved Ultimate Member users in the directory?
-
Yes. Enable Show Only Approved Users in the Member Directory Grid Content tab to list only members whose UM account status is approved.
-
Can I sort the member directory by last login or a custom field?
-
Yes. Sort by display name, first name, last name, registration date, last login, post count, user ID, or any custom meta field — all from the Elementor widget panel.
-
Can I build a custom Ultimate Member profile page in Elementor?
-
Yes, with Pro. The Profile Page Builder provides dedicated Elementor widgets that replace the default UM profile template: cover photo, header, bio, meta fields, social links, action bar, completion bar, custom tabs, and profile body. See How to Customize the Ultimate Member Profile Page.
-
Can I display members in a sortable table with CSV export?
-
Yes, with Pro. The Member Table widget supports clickable column sorting, global AJAX search, and one-click CSV export of the filtered member list. Step-by-step guide: Display Ultimate Member Users in an Elementor Table.
-
Can I add a member carousel or slider in Elementor?
-
Yes, with Pro. The Member Carousel uses Swiper.js for smooth, touch-friendly sliding — ideal for homepage featured members and testimonials.
-
Is this compatible with caching plugins like WP Rocket or LiteSpeed Cache?
-
Yes. If AJAX or directory scripts fail after minification, exclude
wp-content/plugins/ultimate-member-widgets-for-elementor/assets/js/from your caching plugin’s JavaScript processing. -
Does this work on WordPress multisite?
-
Yes. Each site in the network operates independently with its own user query scope.
