Example 1: Adding a Custom Message Before Signup

Here’s how you can add a custom message at the top of the signup page using the before_signup_header hook.

    function weplugins_add_custom_message() {
        echo 'Welcome to our community! Please sign up below.';
    }
    add_action( 'before_signup_header', 'weplugins_add_custom_message' );
    

Example 2: Logging Signup Page Visits

This example demonstrates how to log each time a user visits the signup page.

    function weplugins_log_signup_visit() {
        error_log('Signup page was visited at ' . current_time('mysql'));
    }
    add_action( 'before_signup_header', 'weplugins_log_signup_visit' );
    

Example 3: Custom CSS for Signup Page

If you want to apply custom CSS styles specifically for the signup page, you can enqueue a stylesheet with this hook.

    function weplugins_enqueue_signup_styles() {
        wp_enqueue_style( 'custom-signup-styles', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/signup-styles.css' );
    }
    add_action( 'before_signup_header', 'weplugins_enqueue_signup_styles' );
