Hi Simple Press team
Could I please get some help on how I could get rid of the default simple press login form. I am using a login and registration plugin and no longer need anything under ‘Advanced search’ text
Second question – How do I remove ‘Welcome back John. Please log in to post” after John visits the forum page a second time (This is even though he is not logged in yet as simple press uses cookies).
Thanks heaps
Sorry forgot the third question – I would like the users to navigate to URL www.abc.com when they click Login and navigate to URL www.def.com when they click Register. How could I provide different URLs for login and register buttons at the top please?
if you dont want the login form, just remove it from your sp theme… we of course, advise a child theme or custom theme for modifications…
It varies from theme, but you would want to remove this template call:
sp_LoginForm($loginForm);
from your sp theme, likely in the spHead.php template file… that wont remove the login/logout button though… you would remove it by this template call
sp_LogInOutButton(‘tagClass=spButton spRight’, __sp(‘Log In’), __sp(‘Log Out’), __sp(‘Log in and log out’));
which is also where you could change the login and logout links (where they point to)… see: https://simple-press.com/documentation/codex/api/template-functions-and-the-api/display-template-functions/common-view/sp_loginoutbutton/
similarly, you can change where the register button points to:
sp_RegisterButton(‘tagClass=spButton spRight’, __sp(‘Register’), __sp(‘Register’));
