What It Does

Custom Login lets WordPress administrators replace the default wp-login.php branding with custom logos, backgrounds, and styling so client-facing login screens match a brand identity. It is positioned as a quick white-label solution for agencies handing finished sites over to non-technical clients.

Who It's For

This plugin fits agencies, freelancers, and hosting providers that maintain many client sites and want a consistent branded login page without touching theme files. It also suits franchises or corporate teams that need every backend touchpoint to look on-brand.

Who Should Skip It

If you only need a security-focused login hardening plugin like Loginizer, or if you prefer deep visual control through the Customizer like LoginPress offers, this lightweight tool will feel too narrow. Sites without client branding requirements have little reason to install it.

The Bottom Line

Custom Login delivers a focused, recently maintained white-label login experience for agencies, but its 10,000 installs, 72/100 rating, and complete absence of support activity place it well behind LoginPress and Loginizer in both reach and polish. The strong maintenance score is encouraging, yet the limited feature depth and quiet community make it a second-tier pick for most client workflows.
