  Are you looking for the login box itself or the whole page.

  WHOLE PAGE

  If you don't have custom_index or any other plugins like that installed, just edit the index.php of your Elgg directory.

  Take a look at my ElggPanel plugin. You can customize the home page.

  THE LOGIN BOX

  The form can be edited in views/default/forms/login.php of your elgg directory.

  Please do not edit the index.php of your Elgg directory. Don't touch core files!!!

  The custom_index plugin should do what you need.

  @Anthony - it looks like you're using a custom theme that is overwriting the view, since privacy/terms/about is not usually part of the login box.  I assume you're creating a new plugin to put this code into, make sure it's the bottom-most plugin and that your file in views/default/forms/login.php is in the exact directory structure.  You will probably want to copy that file from your theme and just make changes to it instead of rewriting it from scratch.

  @Matt Beckett

  Sorry for the late reply. No I'm not using any particular theme. In the configuration panel of elgg 1.8.3 (Installed from scratch) I go to :-

  Administration

  Configure

  Settings

  Advanced Settings

  Restrict pages to logged-in users

  and I put a tick next to Restrict pages to logged-in users

  Once that is done you log out. You then got a box where the privacy/terms/about is on your left next to login.

  And in the path views/default/forms/login.php there is nothing about privacy/terms/about position and so on.

  Anthony, if you restrict pages to logged-in users then you have a private network.

  In this case, your default login page is the following:

  <your elgg website>/views/default/page/walled_garden.php

  Your theme plugin should override this page

  <your elgg website>/mod/mycooltheme/views/default/page/walled_garden.php

  To customize the login box itself you need to override the default login form:

  <your elgg website>/views/default/forms/login.php

  with your own one in your theme plugin:

  <your elgg website>/mod/mycooltheme/views/default/forms/login.php

  Hi, I'm new at this, so if I want to change the default login page, by changing some names like instead of Log In having Sign up; or having Keep me logged instead of Remember me; and want to change the positions of some of the names like putting Lost password in front of the box of Password, I need to make a new pluggin or to go change the /views/default/forms/login.php 
  
  Thank you

  This works well and after changing the login.php, it works like a charm. However, I want to change the "Welcome to: <Community Name>" to some logo or text. Where do I change that?
