  Hello. I’ve setup a custom registration and log in page using formidable forms, for access to exclusive content and services. The test user registration is successful but when I use those creds to login, I’m re-directed to a the wordpress.com login and it asks for a wordpress.com account to be created. Is it even possible to have users access my site without a wordpress account? And if so how is this achieved?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there!

  You can turn off WordPress.com Log in by clicking My Site → Settings → Security → toggle the option “WordPress.com log in.” I see that you’ve already turned that off. I assume you’re all set?

  Feel free to let us know if you have more questions.

  Hi, thanks for the reply, yeah I figured it out in the end. Can you please pass on to the team to make this setting more descriptive as it isn’t very intuitive as to what it actually does.
  
  To me it reads at first glance as “would you like you users to also be able to use their wordpress login”

  Not, this will only allow users to use a wordpress login
