Hello folks,
Can you please guide me how to ovveride through ES Template Editor the EasySocial Login module?

Thanks!
Hello Vaggelis,

You could copy the file /modules/mod_easysocial_login/tmpl/default.php into /templates/JOOMLA_TEMPLATE/html/mod_easysocial_login/default.php

Replace JOOMLA_TEMPLATE with your joomla's template name and start making changes to that new file

The login module in EasySocial is originating from the following paths:

Standard layout
/modules/mod_easysocial_login/tmpl/default.php

Horizontal layout
/modules/mod_easysocial_login/tmpl/horizontal.php

Thank you so much for this. Everything works so nice. Is there any chance to show the FORGOT password link at the login module?

Hello Vaggelis,

It should already show the forgot password unless you turned it off in the module settings :| Can you check your module settings to ensure that the show forgotten password is enabled?

I do not think that I have that option (eslm1.jpg)

I am trying to modify the CSS of that module https://www.corplace.com/en/login and I am working on the file /public_html/templates/t3_bs3_blank/html/com_easysocial/styles/style.min.css

Is that OK?

It seems like we missed that option from the Easysocial login module, can you try download my attached fix files and replace into following file location and see how it goes?

JoomlaFolder/modules/mod_easysocial_login/mod_easysocial_login.xml
JoomlaFolder/language/en-GB/en-GB.mod_easysocial_login.ini

By the way, these fix will included in next release version.

That worked for backend, but still in front end I can not see the "forgot password" link: https://www.corplace.com/en/login

Please help also to modify the CSS of the module. I have to modify the height and the background color

The forgot password should show up correctly now. As for overriding the background, you can apply the codes below:

[gist]
body #es .es-mod-login-wrap {
border: 0;
}

body #es .es-mod-login-wrap__hd {
background: none;
}
[/gist]

Hello dear Mark,
My issue is that I can not find the method to override that code. Have to upload a file at template overrides? I need from you to guid me which file specific to edit.

Thank you so much for your response.

If you would like to modify the styling on your Easysocial login module, you can modify on this file.

JoomlaFolder/modules/mod_easysocial_login/tmpl/horizontal.php

Then you can template override in this file location :
JoomlaFolder/templates/YourTemplate/html/mod_easysocial_login/horizontal.php

Hope this help.

If you would like to modify the css, I would recommended you collect those css class name then apply into Easysocial custom css file, so it will not affected when you update to next version.

JoomlaFolder/templates/YourCurrentTemplate/html/com_easysocial/css/custom.css
