I really hate the design of the log in page I get several emails a week from people who forget their login info and ask me to send it to them. I constantly have to tell them to go back to the login screen SCROLL DOWN and fill in the data and the system will send them a temporary password.

Is there a way to SPLIT the log in page into two pages and on the "main" login just a link that says I FORGOT MY LOGIN or PASSWORD... this would then take them to the second page. For them to make a request.

Thanks

How about you place an anchor where the lost password field is and link to it from above the login page?

Ok made the login much better now.

This is login.tmpl
