Login box to FrontPage / Categories
Varjis
New
Hi, I'm planning on moving from phpbb to new platform and Vanilla seems nice, but I'm having problems with few things.
Most annoying bumb I have faced is login. I would love to move the default installed login box ( the one that opens from frontpage ) to
actually be in frontpage, without the extra steps for it.
I've tried to code it there with my very limited skills / knowledge without success. I also have tried to search for topics / plugins for it and it seems not many ppl with same problem around. Latest topics about the issue were like 5-6 years old.
So, How would I get that email/login & pw box to be in frontpage?

Do you want there to be a login module on the home, or do you want the home just to be login?
If it is the latter
$Configuration['Routes']['DefaultController'] = 'entry';
in conf/config.php would work
grep is your friend.
No, I actually want the login boxes, buttons, etc be inside the "homepage". I have set categories as the homepage. Right now it says right-top corner "Howdy stranger....". So I would like to replacate that with the login boxes / buttons.
There are many ways to do this this is probably the simplest. it would apply across all pages.
in your theme create a file /views/modules/guest.php (creating the directories as needed
put inside
grep is your friend.
Indeed, exactly what I was looking for. To push this forum a bit further, just need a nod to right direction.
Would I be able to place other applications ( Are these called that? ) to side panel similar way?
It depends what you are talking about.
You can create modules, and add them to the Panel (sidebar). You would have to look at docs an how various plugins do this.
