You can optionally set the message that will be displayed to users when they are already logged in with the logged_in_message parameter:

[charitable_login logged_in_message="You are already logged in!"]

You can also customize the text used for the link to the registration page with the registration_link_text parameter:

[charitable_login registration_link_text="Register"]

To remove the link to the registration page altogether, set registration_link_text to 0:

[charitable_login registration_link_text=0]

It is also possible to change the default page that people are redirected to after logging in:

[charitable_login redirect=http://yoursite.com]

After creating this page, go to Charitable Settings and scroll down to find the “Login Page” setting. From the dropdown list, select the page you just created.

Logout Link

You can add a logout link with a shortcode:

The shortcode accepts two optional parameters: redirect sets the URL that users will be redirected to after logging out. text sets the logout text.

You can let donors see a history of their donations with this shortcode:
