Like we can edit wp-login.php in root folder of Wordpress to customize/change its login page, I would like to know the file name and its location where the HTML form of login page is written in Joomla.

I want to add an OnClick function to the username field.

<input name="login" onlick=(test_function)>

To put it quite simply then (based on your comment), the file you're looking for is:

modules/mod_login/tmpl/default.php

I would suggest however, you perform a Template Override to edit this file, rather than editing the core. It will prevent your changes being overridden in a Joomla update.

Hope this helps

  • Ah right' so you.wish to edit the component view, not the module. You will need to go to components/com_users/views/login/tmpl

  • Remember the template override though.
