A WooCommerce Login Shortcode is a great way to create a custom login page for your WooCommerce store. By using a shortcode, you can easily customize the look and feel of your login page, without having to edit any code. In this article, we will show you how to create a WooCommerce Login Shortcode.

In order to create a WooCommerce Login Shortcode, you will need to add the following code to your functions.php file:

function wooc_login_form_shortcode() {
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
    echo 'You are already logged in!';
} else {
    $args = array(
        'redirect' => home_url(), 
        'form_id' => 'wooc-login-form',
        'label_username' => __( 'Username or Email Address' ),
        'label_password' => __( 'Password' ),
        'label_log_in' => __( 'Log In' ),
    );
    wp_login_form( $args );
    echo '' . 
__( 'Lost your password?' ) . '';
}
}
add_shortcode( 'wooc-login-form', 'wooc_login_form_shortcode' );

This code will create a shortcode called [wooc-login-form]. You can then use this shortcode in any post or page on your WordPress site.

The login form includes fields for the username and password, as well as a “Log In” button. If the user is already logged in, they will see a message that says “You are already logged in!”

PRO TIP: This article describes how to create a WooCommerce login shortcode. However, it is important to note that this shortcode should not be used on a live site. This is because the shortcode will allow anyone who knows the URL of the login page to bypass the WordPress login page and directly access the WooCommerce account page. This could lead to someone gaining access to your WooCommerce account without having to go through the WordPress login page.

How to Style the WooCommerce Login Form?

The default WooCommerce Login Form is basic and doesn’t include any styling. However, you can easily add your own CSS styles to make it match your store’s design. To do this, simply create a new file called wooc-login-form.css in your child theme’s directory.

Next, copy and paste the following CSS into that file:

.wooc-login-form {
   width: 400px; 
   border: 1px solid #ddd; 
   border-radius: 5px; 
   padding: 20px; 
} 
 
.wooc-login-form input[type=text], 
.wooc-login-form input[type=password] { 
   width: 100%; 
   border: 1px solid #ddd; 
   border-radius: 3px; 
   padding: 10px; 
   margin: 0 0 20px 0; 
} 

This CSS will add some basic styling to your login form, including a width, border, and padding. You can also style the input fields by adding the following CSS:

.wooc-login-form input[type=text] { 
   height: 40px; 
} 
.wooc-login-form input[type=password] { 
   height: 40px; 
} 

Conclusion

In conclusion, creating a WooCommerce Login Shortcode is a great way to customize the look and feel of your login page. By using a shortcode, you can easily add your own CSS styles to make it match your store’s design.
