I've found all the others, but this one ( http://shaleforum.com/user/login) remains elusive. How do I get to the edit page for this form?

Go to your "Account Settings" logged in as the master admin, then click on the "Form Designer" button, the select the "user/signup" selection from the drop down field at the top right.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for chipping in Douglas! That appears to be the "Sign Up" which I was able to find and edit. Now, I'm looking for the "Log In" form...see attached image.

Sorry, I was thinking signup.

You can not edit the login form, not really sure why you would need to.

That form and page is built internally, it is not part of a template.

You can create your own login form if you like though.

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-developers-guide/603/howto-add-the-user-login-form-to-any-page

But I don't believe you can add anymore fields to it.

Hope this helps!

You would want to create your own login form, as suggested by the link in my previous post, and then add your note/message to that.

Hope this helps!

Note that I've also added From Designer support to the /user/login view for the next release. This would allow you to create a new custom "notice" form type and put in a custom message or HTML.

Still needs some testing on this end, and adding custom FIELDS to the login form is not going to get you anywhere, but it might helpful to those using custom modules.

For a FULLY custom login you need to do like Douglas outlined.

As Brian said, it still needs a bit of testing our end as there might be implications elsewhere in JR. It'll be in the next User module release though.

I thought that's what he was saying.

Is there a timeframe for the next release or is it an open date. thx.
