Hi there,

I developed a module, and it requires a login. I would like to change the link on the login form to include another link, i didn't want to include this with my module, its more about the site i've developing for. So as a result i put the Security_login.ss in the theme template directory. So it's just going to do my template like this.
However, it seems to work with another login link i have for the site. Just when it displays the loginform for my module, it reverts to the original and not to the custom made one.

I changed the template variable to $Form from $LoginForm. And it just stops displaying the form altogether. But with just the $LoginForm it displays as per usual.

Just wondering if i needed to add anything?

Security_login is only used when you go to Security/login in the URL. If you have a login form through $LoginForm on another page then you'll need to provide a custom theme for that page (whatever it would be).

Sorry to hijack this thread...but I really am having an issue with Security_login.ss not working. See screenshot. I have a Layout for this page, but when I go to mysite.com/admin SilverStripe is preferring to use Page.ss instead. I tried adding a silverstripe-cache directory to forcefully rebuild the cache, but still prefers Page.ss. Any idea?

Hi Prawnstar,

Did you try doing a /dev/build?flush=1 ? or a ?flush=1 on your page.

I swear I did that! I swear I did! But the fact that it works now proves I didn't. (Red face)

Thanks, it works now. Nothing to see here...

yeah - that happens to me a lot too. I end up doing something drastic on the page if i think it's not working, so i can visably see the change and then decide its not working :)

glad tht helped.
