Post Pic Add a login form on your WordPress Theme

Are you using WordPress as a cms or as a community site? If yes, it can be a cool idea to display a login form in your blog sidebar or on a specific page. Here’s a simple code to do it.
Nothing hard at all. Simply paste the following code where you'd like to display your login form. (For example, on your blog sidebar, or on a page template)

<?php if (!(current_user_can('level_0'))){ ?> 
<h2>Login</h2>
<form action="<?php echo get_option('home');
?>/wp-login.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="log"
id="log" value="<?php echo wp_specialchars(stripslashes($user_login), 1) ?>"
size="20" />
<input type="password" name="pwd" id="pwd" size="20" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send" class="button" />
<p>
<label for="rememberme"><input name="rememberme" id="rememberme" type="checkbox"
checked="checked" value="forever" /> Remember me</label>
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_to"
value="<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>" />
</p>
</form>
<a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword">
Recover password</a> <?php } else { ?>
<h2>Logout</h2>
<a href="<?php echo wp_logout_url(urlencode($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])); ?>">
logout</a><br />
<a href="http://XXX/wp-admin/">admin</a>
<?php }?>

Once saved, your theme will display a login form. Definitely easier and quicker for login!
