Description

With this plugin you can use customize the appearance of the WordPress login page and dashboard. You can upload a custom image for the login screen and specify the link attached to the logo. By default you are redirected to the homepage of your site.

You can find more information about this plugin and a screencast video which shows the plugin in action on the plugin homepage.

The Customize Admin plugin also allows you to disable selected dashboard widgets and it can also remove the WordPress meta generator tag from the head section in your website’s html code.

Screenshots

  • You can specify the logo image and clickthrough link on the options page. It is also possible to disable the generator meta tag and specified dashboard widgets.

Installation

  1. First you will have to upload the plugin to the /wp-content/plugins/ folder.
  2. Then activate the plugin in the plugin panel.
    If you have manage options rights you will see the new Custom Admin Settings menu.
  3. Specify a clickthrough url for the logo if required.
  4. Specify the url for the custom logo. The path can be relative from the root or include the domain name.
  5. If you have not yet uploaded a logo, you can do so via the Upload Image button. Make sure you click ‘Insert into Post’. For the best result, use an image of maximum 67px height by 326px width.
  6. Click Save Changes.

FAQ

Why did you make another admin logo plugin?

There are already quite a few plugins that offer similar functionality, but the fact that my plugin uses the WordPress Media Library makes it super easy to upload and edit your own logo.

I also am not aware of any other plugins that allow you to specify a clickthrough url for the logo.

Finally, this plugin is ready to be localized. All you have to do is to use the POT file for translating.

Your plugin is being breached again

cedaly1968 September 3, 2016
Customize Admin keeps being inserted into my WordPress admin and then rootuser is inserted into MySQL. Customize Admin was put on my site ONCE by me and I had some issues so I removed it. During that install, there must have been a virus inserted elsewhere in WordPress because the plugin is reinstalling itself. The virus brought our server down the other day because it consumed all of the disk space. When it took off, there were literally hundreds of IP's pinging other malicious files placed on our server.
