I would like to change the text in the Easy Social Log Box Module that says "Don't have an account? Register now to join the community! " What file do I need to edit?

Thanks.
It's best to use a language override. They are much easier to maintain, very easy to find the string you want, and require less output overriding which is an extra bonus.

Here's a good article on this (skip down to "Using Language Overrides in Joomla 3.0"): http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/joomla-3/languages/overrides#main

The method or what text is changed? I'm not saying it will work 100% on every single piece of site text, but it typically works on at least 80-90% of what you search up in the values field. There are some extensions out there that don't always use the best practices, hence the "works most of the time" statement.

I was hoping I could format the text differently but nonetheless it's good to know!

Hi Peter,

You can find the following language string inside you /language/en-GB/en-GB.com_easysocial.ini to change the text.
COM_EASYSOCIAL_LOGIN_NO_ACCOUNT="Don't have an account?"
COM_EASYSOCIAL_LOGIN_REGISTER_NOW="Register now to join the community!"


You can also go to the /modules/mod_easysocial_logbox/tmpl/default.php starting from line 86 to change the behavior of the text.
