Changing the Logo

Default it is the WordPress Logo. Change the file path to meet your needs.

function custom_login_logo() {
        echo '<style type="text/css">h1 a { background: url('.get_bloginfo('template_directory').'/images/logo-login.gif) 50% 50% no-repeat !important; }</style>';
}
add_action('login_head', 'custom_login_logo');

Changing the URL

Default, this links to the WordPress site. Make this change to change it to your sites home page.

function change_wp_login_url() {
        echo bloginfo('url');
}
add_filter('login_headerurl', 'change_wp_login_url');

Changing the Title

This is the Title attribute for the logo image. Making this change will change it to your blog’s name that you setup in the setting section.

function change_wp_login_title() {
        echo get_option('blogname');
}
add_filter('login_headertitle', 'change_wp_login_title');

That’s all. You are ready to go!
