AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Flexible Frontend Login is a highly rated WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Login category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 14 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How to use the Flexible Frontend Login shortcode on your site On the widget settings page choose the Flexible Frontend Login and adjust the settings to your site.
In a post or page place [flexible-frontend-login]
By default the shortcode uses the settings set on the admin options page
You can override those default values with the following parameters and options:
vertical=top, bottom
horizontal=left, right
So your shortcode might look like this:
[flexible-frontend-login vertical=bottom horizontal=left]
If you want to use the centered login form with darkened overlay in the background
use [flexible-frontend-login-modal] without any parameters.
How to use the Flexible Frontend Login template tag on your site In template files place:
<?php if ( function_exists('flexible_frontend_login') ) flexible_frontend_login( 'bottom', 'left' ); ?>
To change popups behavior you can use
“bottom” or “top”
“left” or “right”
For popup with overlay use:
<?php if ( function_exists('flexible_frontend_login_modal') ) flexible_frontend_login_modal(); ?>
