Hi

I'm just wondering how one can edit the skin of the log in block.
This is not possible via block configuration & I do not see where else to access the settings, since the block only appears if one is logged out.
Was this forgotten, at least in the D7 version?

Regards

Wow - good question. I hadn't realized how tricky this is. Since you clearly can't use the Edit skin option you see when you hover over the block, you have to do it on the block configuration page. But it not very obvious that you can do it here. When you go to the configuration page and hover over a part of the page, you'll see the same little gear icon in the top right corner. Click on that to see the Edit Skin link for the block.

Seems like there should be a better/more obvious way to do this. Thanks for bringing this up.

Hi,
Thank you for the response.
If u mean clicking "Edit skin" on=> /admin/structure/block/manage/user/login/configure, for some reason there is no effect or at least the login block remains as it was, even if one changes the settings.
.... or I'm just missing something?
Actually those settings I discovered later changed the appearance of the MAIN CONTENT area. ;;)

So still stuck.
Regards.

Found this on http://groundwork.noceda.no/handbook/configuration/user-login-block:

The address for editing the skin of the User Login block is http://example.com/admin/structure/skinr/edit/nojs/block/user__login (where example.com is your site domain).

Works a treat.
