Customize Login Page

[Kathleen]

Hi,

I am looking to customize the template for the login page. I am using the plugin theme my login. The issue I am having is with the community events add-on login page. When a user is not signed in it pulls up a login page, but the formatting is off. I want to know where this template lives so that I can edit the layout by adding div class containers, and change the register link. I know how to edit the css for this page, I am looking for the actual template file to update this link and add the container. Another solution that would work for me would be knowing how to select what login page url this is going to. I can then direct it to the theme my login page.

Thanks,
Katie

Hi,

Thanks for using our plugin.

The login form is not a template to edit. It is using the WordPress function wp_login_form();

However, we do not have filters to alter it directly.

The best way to add your own login form is to follow our themer’s guide:

https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/

To move and edit this file:

the-events-calendar-community-events\views\community\edit-event.php

Once in your theme you can wrap all the coding in your own logged in check and add your Login Form before ours shows. Then once someone is logged in using your form it would bypass ours.

That is the only method we have available to change how the form looks besides doing css.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks

Hi Brian,

Thank you for your help. I have been customizing the templates, was just not sure where the login was. However now that I know it is the WordPress function wp_login_form(); just, I can fix it.

Thank you for the help,
