How do i change the ‘sign in /join’ part of the mobile menu? I want to either take it off, or change what It says with my own custom link. I want to be able to edit the text and put whatever link I want there.
This is what it looks like now
I want to change it to say “my account” with my own link. How do I do this
I found how to turn it off from theme panel. But I want to change the link and text of it. How do I change what it says
Hi,
The text can be translated using the theme panel > translations -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/loading-translations/
Or in case that you want to edit it, then it can be done only in the theme files and those can be find in this folder wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/parts/header
Thank you!
where are those folders????
Hi Stanford Nix,
The folder is header and the path to it is wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/parts/header there is a file td-login-modal.php where is the code for sign in / join.
The code for menu is this one wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/parts/login.php – logged.php
Now if you are using the mobile theme plugin the files are on this path -> wp-content/plugins/td-composer/mobile/parts
Thank you!
I dont know how to find the folder. Just saying it is wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/parts/header doesn’t tell me where I can find the folders. I tried inputting that after my domain and it didn’t go anywhere. I don’t know how to find the ‘sign in/join’ to edit.
Hi,
That is the path/place where you need to access if you want to edit the theme files used for the mobile menu. Unfortunately, I do not know How can I provide a more precis location.
For example in wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/parts/header there is a file td-login-modal.php -> https://i.imgur.com/czkOkl9.png
I hope that this will help!
1) Its not there. I cannot find the place you are pointing to.
2) IF I do find it, what do I do next? Because Im just in the inspect element. I don’t know how to actually change the link
I found it. But what edits do I make to change the links? I want the ‘sign up’ link to go to a specific page.
2) when I am signed it, the name up top goes to the ‘author page’. I want to change it to go to a specific link. How do I change that
Hi Stanford Nix, you are not looking in the correct place, you need to do this using an editor (for example plugins editor) or via FTP/cPanel, from your screenshots, I see that you check it in the website source page. That is only to see the code from that page, not to change it. The changes must be done in the theme and plugins files. Also if you didn’t do that before and you do not experience with this is not indicate do do it, because, you can damage the website. Also, when you want to make change sin the theme or plugin require to have some skills and to know what you want to achieve, so you will know what you need to change and how.
In our theme for the mobile version the sing in and join modals are called using js and are call the links ids -> https://i.imgur.com/4Xrda1h.png what you can do is to remove those ids and set instead of id a href with a link to the custom page where you want to redirect for login/join -> https://i.imgur.com/FX8pJyE.png Now this example will work only for the mobile theme plugin. For the responsive version you’ll need to make the changes -> https://i.imgur.com/5qdneqp.png
I hope this will help you!
I need to know how to change the author page link on mobile.
When someone is signed in on mobile, and they click on the name up top it takes them to the ‘author page’. I want to change the link of this to go to a specific page.
1) I want to know where to go to change this and
2) I want the exact code to replace the path to go to my account page. The link I want it to go to is ‘https://theatlasnews.co/account/‘
Hello Stanford Nix!
Please check this topic: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/change-link-on-theme-header-login-to-something-custom/
Hope that helps you!
Thank you!
I think that will help. But im not good at coding. What do I change?
I see this. but I don’t know what to change. I want to change the link to my own accounts page. But I don’t want to mess something up. What code do I need to replace?
Hello Stanford Nix!
For example, I set up a link here where I explained in that topic: https://www.screencast.com/t/ZoONHZ2pPYf7
And the results are here: https://www.screencast.com/t/gN6zGASAVU
Please note that any change you make in the files after update will be overwritten and you have to make the changes again. Better save the code somewhere and then apply it again after update.
Thank you!
Hello Stanford Nix!
In order to add the social media icons there, you can do that from Theme Panel -> Social Networks. Apply the links there.
Thank you!
