Just a simple shortcode for including login form in any page

This plugin utilizes the shortcode [login_form] to present users with login form, lost password recovery and password reset fields on the front end of a WordPress site. The plugin heavily filters login and authentication urls to keep visitors from being sent to wp-login.php. It does not prevent a user from going directly to wp-login. The plugin blocks all non administrators from accessing the dashboard by doing a redirect to the homepage.
This plugin is designed for use with <a href="http://www.gravityforms.com/" title="Gravity Forms" rel="nofollow ugc">Gravity Forms by Rocketgenius, Inc.</a>, presenting a visitor a standard login box in place of forms which are restricted to logged in users only. It can also be used with other plugins that show content for non-logged in users, such as <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-status-shortcode/" title="User Status Shortcode" rel="ugc">User Status Shortcode By Story Block Media</a>.
A few notes about this plugin:

<li>Plugin not tested with WordPress Network</li>
<li>Password reset and password recovery are all done on the page with the shortcode</li>
