Adding a couple of watchers here.

The alert message should probably be changed.

The "Lost your password" link shows up at the bottom. See attached screenshot:

Perhaps change the word "above" to "below"?

Or change the text to:

If you are unable to log in, please try [resetting your password](link to reset password page). If you need more assistance, please contact the CUNY Academic Commons team at support@cunycommons.zendesk.com.

That could work. We could also put "Lost Password" next to the login button? I think that's a pretty usual placement for it (I'm wondering whether Sara has thoughts)

I've changed the word "above" to "below" and moved the "Register" and "Lost your password?" links directly below the login form: https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/f51d515213f8e43d4d14d3c6026dda059f12b45c

Those links are supposed to be shown directly below the login form, but the bp-default theme had a CSS rule that moved it to the bottom by accident.

See attached screenshot:

We could also put "Lost Password" next to the login button?

The login markup is hardcoded by WordPress. We could do some manipulations with javascript though if we wanted to place the button next to the "Log In" button.

Thanks all, I'll flag this for Sara when I talk to her later this week about upcoming projects, if she doesn't jump on it before then!
