Instructions

When creating retro login page styles:

  1. Use CSS custom properties for colors and fonts
  2. Target login-specific selectors (.login, #loginform)
  3. Apply retro effects subtly - prioritize accessibility
  4. Keep styles isolated - login page doesn't load theme styles

Retro Style Elements

Element CSS Selector Notes
Page wrapper .login Main container
Login form #loginform Form element
Logo area .login h1 a WordPress logo
Error box .login .message Info/error messages
Submit button .wp-submit-button Login button
Footer .login footer Footer area

Example Pattern

:root {
	--retro-bg: #2d1b4e;
	--retro-primary: #ff6b9d;
	--retro-text: #c8d6e5;
	--retro-font: 'Press Start 2P', monospace;
}

.login {
	background: var(--retro-bg);
	font-family: var(--retro-font);
}

#loginform {
	background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.05);
	border: 2px solid var(--retro-primary);
	border-radius: 4px;
}

.wp-submit-button {
	background: var(--retro-primary);
	color: var(--retro-bg);
	border: none;
}

Guidelines

  • Define colors as :root variables for easy theming
  • Test contrast ratios for accessibility
  • Use subtle animations (scanlines, glow)
  • Don't modify core WordPress functionality
  • Keep CSS minimal - login page should load fast
