Joomla: How can we change default url redirect to custom Form pages?

Question

Within Joomla 2.5.6 core login module their are three links under the login text boxes.

Forgot your password?
Forgot your username?
Don't have an account?

If a user clicks on "Create an account" it redirects then to the Joomla default registration form mysite/index.php/en/joomla/joomla-components/registration-form?view=reset

how can we change this to redirect to custom Forms page?

mysite/index.php/en/forgot-password
mysite/index.php/en/forgot-username
mysite/index.php/en/create-account

Answer 1

There are two ways to do it.

1. You can assign a menu item for each link. Just create menus for each type like login,forgot password etc.

   

2. Or another way is to do with .htaccess.

If I am not getting you wrong than this will help you. You can override the default layout of login module Read More

Copy modules/mod_login/tmpl/default.php and paste this to /templates/activetemplate/html/mod_login.And change the below code

<ul>
        <li>
            <a href="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_users&view=reset'); ?>">
            <?php echo JText::_('MOD_LOGIN_FORGOT_YOUR_PASSWORD'); ?></a>
        </li>
        <li>
            <a href="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_users&view=remind'); ?>">
            <?php echo JText::_('MOD_LOGIN_FORGOT_YOUR_USERNAME'); ?></a>
        </li>
        <?php
        $usersConfig = JComponentHelper::getParams('com_users');
        if ($usersConfig->get('allowUserRegistration')) : ?>
        <li>
            <a href="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_users&view=registration'); ?>">
                <?php echo JText::_('MOD_LOGIN_REGISTER'); ?></a>
        </li>
        <?php endif; ?>
    </ul>

And set the layout in login module.
