Hi everybody. 
I need to customize login page. I have done a lot of searching and investigating. As i understand, if i want to change login page structurally (e.g. change layout, add some links) i need to create my own module. I can't achieve this just with skins and containers. Did i understand it right? Or there are some other possibilities? 


Thanks.
Cheers.

Hey there,

The business part of the login page is actually just a module.  So it depends I guess on what you actually want to change.

If you just want to have some other images / text or other links as such displayed on the same page as the login module then this is possible.

1.  Create a new page on your site - Call it Account Login or some such.
2.  Add the Account Login module to this new page.
3.  Add any other HTML/TEXT or MEDIA modules you want to this new page ( other text or images etc)
4.  Open you Admin - Site Settings page 
5.  Open the Advanced Settings section
6.  You should see and option that says Login Page  <None>  -   change this so that it points to your NEW login page.

Whenever a user clicks on Login they will now see your custom page.

Hope this helps you out.

Ah ok - in which case unless you are a programmer I would suggest you have a look at one of the custom login modules for sale on www.snowcovered.com.

There are a couple there that should be able to do the trick for you.
