Trying to Customize a PHP wordpress registration page

Anyone like to take a crack at this?

I found a guide - which basically says to
1. Copy the source code from another page.
-> visit your site on a page and right click, select view source and copy it !
2. Edit the wp-login.php file to match the source code
Ok, so I can figure out where to start inserting the code from my copied page source ( <!DOCTYPE ), but seem to be having an issue of where to stop.

It also looks on this guide that there is a weaving in and out.

All I want is the white backdrop to change to the new backdrop I configured.

I don't want the sidebar and all that mishmash in there.

Anyone explain to me how much editing I really need to do and where to do it?

You can see a page of the site I'm taking the source code from on webtrafficattraction (dot) com/about

The php file is just copied from the latest version of wordpress and is the wp-login.php

I think the menu bar can be eliminated, the sidebar, etc. Just really want that slate looking background.

:confused:

    Well no, that's not how you would do that.
    If you just want the background color changed, just change the background color in the section you want changed.
    Where do you actually want the background different though?

    I think there might even be a plugin for this. Let me see if I can dig it up.

    Quit wasting your money! If you need a website, get me to do it right! I'll probably even do it for less! Design/Development/Software, I'm your guy! matt@snidge.com

      There is a plugin for the box itself where the log-in registration is. That's not what I want to change (yet or for now).

      I want to change the actual background template. You know how it is just a white background? I have a different background - I'm just looking to fix the backdrop.

      The theme I'm using has some customizable color wheels, etc on the back end - so it makes sense that some of the code would come from the html to feed off the rest of the theme.

    Couldn't you just find the CSS for that page and update the background there?
