bbPress.org

Hi Robin!
Thanks for your quick reply and assistance. But there’s only one major challenge (at least to me) I am currently facing, which I’ll describe below:

Re: — “Then amend this file to take out the current form and put in a link”

I get the “what” to-do part (i.e. amending file…, creating a folder in my child theme, etc) but as for the “how?”, I have absolutely no idea. In all humility, I make no pretense of familiarity with php syntax or anything php code-related.

I see the <form>….</form> tags in my file below, should I remove it all and place https://mydomain.com/login?

<?php

/**
 * User Login Form
 *
 * @package bbPress
 * @subpackage Theme
 */

// Exit if accessed directly
defined( 'ABSPATH' ) || exit;

?>

<form method="post" action="<?php bbp_wp_login_action( array( 'context' => 'login_post' ) ); ?>" class="bbp-login-form">
	<fieldset class="bbp-form">
		<legend><?php esc_html_e( 'Log In', 'bbpress' ); ?></legend>

		<div class="bbp-username">
			<label for="user_login"><?php esc_html_e( 'Username', 'bbpress' ); ?>: </label>
			<input type="text" name="log" value="<?php bbp_sanitize_val( 'user_login', 'text' ); ?>" size="20" maxlength="100" id="user_login" autocomplete="off" />
		</div>

		<div class="bbp-password">
			<label for="user_pass"><?php esc_html_e( 'Password', 'bbpress' ); ?>: </label>
			<input type="password" name="pwd" value="<?php bbp_sanitize_val( 'user_pass', 'password' ); ?>" size="20" id="user_pass" autocomplete="off" />
		</div>

		<div class="bbp-remember-me">
			<input type="checkbox" name="rememberme" value="forever" <?php checked( bbp_get_sanitize_val( 'rememberme', 'checkbox' ) ); ?> id="rememberme" />
			<label for="rememberme"><?php esc_html_e( 'Keep me signed in', 'bbpress' ); ?></label>
		</div>

		<?php do_action( 'login_form' ); ?>

		<div class="bbp-submit-wrapper">

			<button type="submit" name="user-submit" id="user-submit" class="button submit user-submit"><?php esc_html_e( 'Log In', 'bbpress' ); ?></button>

			<?php bbp_user_login_fields(); ?>

		</div>
	</fieldset>
</form>

My question is and where do I amend this form-user-login.php file with my login url https://mydomain.com/login/?

If given a blueprint, I can certainly reproduce the steps faithfully when dealing with a similar issue

Can you (or anyone willing) please pinpoint the parts/lines to modify with the url? Thanks so much in advance.

Oh, FTP’ing? Sure, I can do that. I use FileZilla.

Thanks Robin!

Hi Robin,

I’ve deleted the content in the form-user-login.php and replaced it as instructed but I see no changes so far.
file in child theme

As shown in the screenshot above, the amended file has been uploaded to my child theme. Anything I’m doing wrong? The instructions you gave were easy to follow, so I’m not sure why it remained unchanged.

From my website, bottom of the page, you can see an example of “Login Here” :
frenchtasticpeople dot com/lab2/forum/60-day-intensive-training-for-beginners-of-french-grammar/welcome-forum-say-bonjour-to-the-french-community/ (I’ve edited the “dot com” part for obvious reasons)

I am open to other suggestions if you have any for me. Grateful for your assistance.

Cleared all caches (browser, wp-rocket, cloudflare and dynamic cache directly from server)

Still get the login url appearing as shown here. Hmm…

Hello Robin,

Here is a link to a live page provided earlier. Please, just convert “dot come” to “.com”

From my website, bottom of the page, you can see an example of “Login Here” :
frenchtasticpeople dot com/lab2/forum/60-day-intensive-training-for-beginners-of-french-grammar/welcome-forum-say-bonjour-to-the-french-community/ (I’ve edited the “dot com” part for obvious reasons)

Thanks for your support!

Hi Robin,

sorry for the delay. The issue got resolved with some extra help from a developer. It’s all working fine now. Thanks for your assistance again.
