New Simple Login Form Template Tag For WordPress 3.0

How to Use the WordPress 3.0 Login Form Template Tag

WordPress 3.0 provides a new template tag for a simple login form that you can use anywhere within WordPress.

Simply drop this tag anywhere in your theme’s template files where you want to output a login form:

<?php wp_login_form(); ?>

This tag will show the default login form pictured above. However, it accepts a number of parameters if you want to change the default. Check out the WordPress codex WP Login Form section for more information on customizing the default login form.
