Hooks & Filters – Custom Functionality for Custom Forms

    I have a fontend login form where I want to remove certain features that are enabled on the built-in WordPress Login form ( /wp-admin/ ). I was wondering if there is a list of Hooks and Filters somewhere so I can try and find the best solution.

    For example, I have enabled the locking out of usernames that do not exist. This is great on the built-in login form but I don’t want this functionality for the custom front-end form so I would like to remove it if possible ( among other things ). I looked at the FAQ which lead to some general support docs but I didn’t see any kind of documentation on hooks and filters.

    Does anyone have suggestions or can point me in a general direction? Worst comes to worst I can dig through the plugins code but I’d rather not as I imagine it’s pretty meaty.

    Hi, I am not sure what you are trying to do. I don’t think this plugin has anything to do with your custom login forms.

    Can you provide more explanation.

    Thank you

    I’m using this plugin to manage login attempts. By using wp_login_form() it logs those same attempts and in turn locks people out. I’m looking for a filter where I can change the number attempts for the wp_login_form() so the Normal WordPress ( wp-login.php ) login form has a low number of attempts before being locked out and the custom wp_login_form() ( front-end facing form ) has a higher number of attempts before the user is locked out.

    Either way I was looking for a list of hooks and filters or some documentation if it exists?

    Thank you for clarifying what you are doing. I have submitted a message to the plugin developers to help you out.

    Hi,
    We currently don’t have documentation for hooks and filters. I think that’s because there aren’t really many of them but I know for sure there is no hook for what you describe. We will investigate to see how best to add such a hook.
