Irritations and Expectations: seeking input

@Aractus

But I shouldn’t need to use functions.php to edit the public-facing login page, there should be some easy simple options from the dashboard to at the very least white-label the login page, perhaps also it should be supported to use one supplied in the theme folder too.

This has been discussed previously:

• "customize" login page - #29 by pieter
• GitHub · Where software is built

If this is something you want to see in ClassicPress core, please leave your vote on the petition. Also a pull request for this change would be very welcome!

General combativeness of those in power to others in the community

Sometimes we do have to push back on things that are not a good idea, or good ideas that are not ready to be implemented yet. However, it is easy to overdo that, and I’d like for ClassicPress to avoid forming “cliques” of people who aren’t open to ideas from people outside of the clique.

If you see this happening here, please tell anyone on the committee and we will make sure it is addressed.

Lack of willingness to add hooks when reasonably requested by the community

Generally I’m happy to add new hooks to ClassicPress. The only caveats I can think of:

• we may not want to open the floodgates here - if we add a lot of things all at once then it becomes a source of incompatibility with WordPress.
• if there is a solid, non-annoying way to do the same thing with existing hooks (may be stating the obvious, but worth stating).
