Remove 'Username' inside log in box

[Vibhor]

Hi,

How can we remove the "Username" inside log in box?

This field already exists outside it so I find it quite pointless. Please refer to attached image.

Thanks.

Anyone?

I haven't tried changing that but as help for you go to AdminCp>Styles & Templates>Style Manager>YOUR STYLE>Edit Templates>Registration templates>Register and then look for this

<input class="bginput" id="regusername" type="text" name="username" size="50" maxlength="$vboptions[maxuserlength]" value="$username" /><img src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]" id="reg_verif_image" onclick="return toggle_collapse('dialog_box')" style="display:none;" alt="" />

you may want to look at $username but i'm not sure as i haven't tried it!

Thanks. I'm wondering shouldn't it be on the Navbar template?

[Simon Lloyd]

In the navbar template look for this

<td><input type="text" class="bginput" style="font-size: 11px" name="vb_login_username" id="navbar_username" size="10" accesskey="u" tabindex="101" value="$vbphrase[username]" onfocus="if (this.value == '$vbphrase[username]') this.value = '';" /></td>

and change value="$vbphrase[username]" but i suggest you leave that in place and actually change the Phrase for that.

I think that it works if I remove both the "$vbphrase[username]" values. But is it safe enough to do that?

Hope log in related issues should not crop up there in future. I searched vB Phrase "Username" but removing it won't work because it will blank out in all the areas where text "Username" appears.
