Hello,

Not all systems are using e-mail for identification. IMHO "Username" is too specific for the login identifier, so I recommend to replace it with "Account name" or "Account".

Also, adding a common footer is not a bad idea either. The best solution would be if it's configurable via main.inc.php. So one could add Terms of service, Privacy etc link/notices to the footer of the RoundCube (and login page).

-- Best regards, Günter Kits

hi!

i have two things i would like to do with the login form:

(1) i would like to display "E-Mail" instead of username. our username is the full email address - so it is easier to directly ask for that :)

the only way i found to achieve this was to modify the .program/include/rcube_template.php, line 1101

...

$table->add('title', html::label('rcmloginuser', Q(rcube_label('mail'))));

(2) i would like to add some information below the login box. of course, this is easily achieved by updating my specific skin.

i was now thinking if either of these modifications - especially (1) - might be of interest to a wider audience and could be made configurable?

As already mentioned in this thread, not all systems use a full email address for logins. This seems like a clear case for a custom skin, especially (2). I could imagine to add more arguments to the template object to customize the label. That could look something like this:

<roundcube:label name="youremail" en_US="Your email address" de_DE="Deine E-Mail-Adresse" noshow="true" /> <roundcube:object name="loginform" form="form" usernameLabel="youremail" />
