Paste the following code in your theme’s functions.php:
add_action( 'wp_login_failed', 'my_front_end_login_fail' ); // hook failed login function my_front_end_login_fail( $username ) { $referrer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; // where did the post submission come from? // if there's a valid referrer, and it's not the default log-in screen if ( !empty($referrer) && !strstr($referrer,'wp-login') && !strstr($referrer,'wp-admin') ) { wp_redirect( $referrer . 'echec' ); // let's append some information (login=echec) to the URL for the theme to use exit; } }
Note: you can change “echec” for the text that suits you most. Once done, create a sub-page of your login page and change it’s permalink to “echec” or whatever else you modified it to.
