WishList Member includes an option that will keep the user on the same login page if their login attempt fails.
Users can now remain on the same page and be shown the error message above the form if the Login Form Mergecode with Ajax error message option is used.
The Login Form Mergecode is available in two formats:
- Standard Login Form Mergecode:
[wlm_loginform] - Login Form Mergecode with Ajax error message option:
[wlm_loginform ajax_login=1]
Either format will display the same login form on the site.

[wlm_loginform ajax_login=1] If the Login Form Mergecode with Ajax error message option is used, the user will remain on the same login page and will see the error message above the form if their login attempt fails.
