I'm wondering how I can change the Log In button in the top right. I'd like to change the wording as well as the URL.

Thanks Pawel. What about the URL? Currently, if you click the "Log In" button, a screen pops up. I'd like this to function as a button URL, so it takes you to a new page - is that possible?

Thanks,

David

Yes, but it request small customization here: templates/gk_cloudhost\layouts\blocks\tools\login.php

Rename class name from
<div id="gkPopupLogin">
to
<div id="gkPopup-no-Login">
or any other

Thanks so much Pawel. Everything looks great, although I am still unable to modify the URL. After following your directions, the button goes (by default) to: /joomla-pages-ii/user-login. Is there any way to modify this URL to something custom?

Thanks!

For some reason I can't figure it out. Can you be more specific? So far I have changed the "Log In" text and I've made it into a button rather than a pop-up. I just want to change the URL.

Thanks so much,

David

You know how Joomla works ?
It need URL generated from menu or just use: index.php?option=com_users&view=login
this is default Joomla Login link.
