iTweak Login module provides very useful tweaks for the standard user login form:
- Lightweight (code under 9k) and powerful
- Complements nicely functions of Login Toboggan module (if it is present)
- Works with any theme (that does not already customize user login)
- Customize "Log in" button:
- select any custom name
- Customize "Username" and "Password":
- Change labels (if not using LoginToboggan)
- Add text before username field in login page
- Customize "Create new account":
- Change link wording
- Change URL (for example to a custom signup page)
- Change to a button with any custom name (defaults to "Register")
- Customize "Request new password":
- Change link wording
- Change URL (for example to a custom login help page)
- Change to a button with any custom name (defaults to "Reset Password")
- Perfect for Multilingual websites (locale module required) and Internationalizable (i18n module required) - See Russian example on Screenshot 4
- All custom labels are applied to tabs and buttons on /user/* pages for consistent look
Currently supports only Drupal-6.x.
Screenshots
- Customized login block (Acquia Marina)
- User settings form with new user login settings section
- New user login settings
- Internationalized user login settings (Russian)
Installation
- Copy the module's directory to your modules directory and activate the module.
- Run update.php. It will take care of registering all Internationalization variables.
Usage
Note: there is no separate settings page by this module (reduce admin tree clutter)
- See "User Login settings" section on Administer > User management > User settings (/admin/user/settings)
Internationalization
i18n module is required for internationalization.
Module provides .pot file. Submit your language translations to the Drupal translations.
Internationalization handbook (section on Multilingual Variables) recommends changing settings.php to register certain variables for internationalization of the site. Doing that as recommended will break itweak_login internationalization. Instead, do a conditional registration (using if()) as in this example:
// Use "if" to prevent overwriting already set values:
if (!is_array($conf['i18n_variables'])) $conf['i18n_variables'] = array(
'site_name',
'site_slogan',
'site_mission',
'site_footer',
'anonymous',
'site_frontpage',
'menu_primary_links_source',
'menu_secondary_links_source',
'contact_form_information',
'theme_settings',
'theme_garland_settings',
