[tips'n'tricks]Create Login Page for DRUPAL CMS

Actually the goal of this activity is just to move the default login page on front page of your DRUPAL based website.

So here it is how to do that :

1. Enable CLEAN URL on your DRUPAL site (please see my previous writing or click here)

2. Enable PATH MODULE on your DRUPAL (Administer –> Site building –> Modules)

3. Create new PAGE (Create content –> Page) then :

a. type “ADMIN ONLY !!! (or whatever actually hihihi)” as the Title

b. expand URL path settings and type “ADMIN” on it

c. SAVE IT !!!

4. Moved the original LOGIN Block to new PAGE (in this case with URL path settings = ADMIN as mention above)

a. go to Administer –> Site building –> Blocks and the find “User Login” on it and click CONFIGURE

b. after you click CONFIGURE, in the new pages, find Page Spesific Visibility setting and set to Show On Only The Listed Pages option and then type “ADMIN” on it.

c. SAVE IT !!!

d. and then in the new pages, you can set where to put your new login page by set the REGION of User Login to anyplace you want as define on its drop down menu and then just SAVE IT !!!

5. TESTING

for testing the new login page, please open other browser which is different with browser that you used for creating new Login Page (to avoid can’t login anymore .. kekekke).

Just Type : http://main_url.com/kampret/ADMIN/

Voilaaaa .. you should see your new pages of login pages.
