With User Registration & Membership v4.4.0 and higher, all login form options and settings are managed from the Login Form builder.

The Login Form Builder can be accessed from your WordPress Dashboard:

Note: You can also access it from the header navigation bar under All Forms.

Inside the Login Form Builder, settings are organized into two sections:

• Field Options: Configure individual fields (labels, placeholders, validation messages, toggles).
