URL Functions for: login, logout, lostpasword and the new register

[ramiy]

I want to finish the work i started on #9932.

First i complited the set of "wp_*_url()" functions:

wp_login_url($redirect) - exists

wp_logout_url($redirect) - exists

wp_lostpassword_url($redirect) - exists

wp_registration_url($redirect) - NEW !!!

Then i examind the wp_loginout($redirect) function and the wp_register( $before = '<li>', $after = '</li>' ) function.

The old wp_register( $before = '<li>', $after = '</li>' ) was depricated in favor of the new wp_registration($redirect), and moved to <wp-includes/deprecated.php>.

The new wp_registration() function uses wp_registration_url(), and like all the functions in this set it accepts only the $redirect parameter.

At the end i fixed <wp-includes/default-widgets.php> and <wp-content/themes/default/sidebar.php> to use the new wp_registration() function.

(Sorry for the bad english)

Not sure this is necessary moving to Future for now.

Why not?

This way all the url_functions for login/logout/password/register will receive the same parameter - "$redirect".

Also, we remove the old "$before" and "$after" parameters, and move the "<li></li>" html tags out from those functions to theme developers control outside the function.

For backward compatibility we use:

wp-includes/deprecated.php

function wp_register( $before = '<li>', $after = '</li>' ) { 
   _deprecated_function(__FUNCTION__, '2.8.1', 'wp_registration()'); 
   echo $before; 
   wp_registration(''); 
   echo $after; 
}

The result is that all the url_functions will return only the URL.

URL Functions:

• wp_login_url($redirect);
• wp_logout_url($redirect);
• wp_lostpassword_url($redirect);
• wp_registration_url($redirect);

Theme Developers will use:

• wp_logout();
• wp_loginout();
• wp_registration();

Hi Ramiy,

thanks for implementing the function wp_lostpassword_url($redirect);
Is there a reason why it is not yet used in wp-login.php line 616 and 618? (development version (3.1-alpha)). The reason I'm asking is because I want to use the plugin hook 'lostpassword_url' (​http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_lostpassword_url) in a plugin and this hook only works when wp_lostpassword_url($)
is called.

Thanks

Axel

I'm using svn revision 15634.

The same applies to wp-includes/user.php line 89 and 109 (and probably some more places).

Replying to Axel_germany:

well, we can add it to 3.1.
