[wp-hackers] Best practice: custom registration form

[Frank Bueltge]

wp_login_form(array(
    'echo' => true,
    'redirect' => site_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']),

    'form_id' => 'loginform',
    'label_username' => __('Username'),

    'label_password' => __('Password'),
    'label_remember' => __('Remember Me'),

    'label_log_in' => __('Log In'),
    'id_username' => 'user_login',

    'id_password' => 'user_pass',
    'id_remember' => 'rememberme',

    'id_submit' => 'wp-submit',
    'remember' => true,
    'value_username' => ,

    'value_remember' => false
));

This function is new with WP3.0 and its exactly for the login  via WP. I
inlcude this in my page-template and ready.
small example:

global $user_login;

if (is_user_logged_in()) {
    echo __( 'Hello, ' FB_BASIS_TEXTDOMAIN ), $user_login, '. <a
href="', wp_logout_url(), '" title="' . __( 'Logout',
FB_BASIS_TEXTDOMAIN ) . '">' . __( 'Logout', FB_BASIS_TEXTDOMAIN ) .
'</a>';

} else {
    wp_login_form();
}

And a tutorial from my, but only in german language:
