WC Vendors Login conflict

[Lorette]

Hi there,

I recently switched from Marketica to Boss at the recommendation of WC Vendors. I am finding a conflict with the WC Vendors Pro “Become a Vendor” login and the Boss login/registration.

I contacted WC Vendors and they said I should ask you to override the /wp-login.php. I am looking forward to your new Etsy styled release…

Thank you for your help.

Hi @lorette, Boss Theme use default BuddyPress registration but it also allows additional registration page and login pages.
Please explain little bit about the conflict, i hope it should be registration link which open BP registration by default.

If you need to change the registration link on the top with http://fairfindz.com/my-account/, you will need to edit the header.php inside the child theme and replace /register with /my-account/

Varun,

Thank you for your response. Were can I find the .php coding? I have looked through all of the settings in my dashboard and can’t find it.

Thank you,

Lorette

PS How different will your new “Etsy” style theme be from Boss and when do you expect to release it?

Hi @lorette

Please copy left-panel.php
you can get this file inside boss theme

boss/template-parts/left-panel.php

Paste this files inside Boss child theme

boss-child/template-parts/left-panel.php

you will need to create template-parts folder inside boss-child as this folder do not exist by default

We are using this apprach apprach to preserve boss theme files, we do not edit parent theme ,else after theme update your edits inside the parent theme will be lost.
To keep all edits safe we do them inside child theme

Thanks for your reply.
I have been trying to figure out your instructions but have not had success. How do you create a template-parts folder using FileZilla? I am at a loss on how to proceed.

Thanks for your help,

Thanks Varun,

Fair Findz is a multi-vendor marketplace and an Event Directory. What I am trying to accomplish is replacing the BuddyPress Registration button in the title bar with a Registration button that links to WC Vendor Pro’s Vendor Dashboard Registration/Login. I would like the button to say Register. If possible I would like to keep the Login button as it currently is as it seems to work as a login for the vendors as well.

I have the same issue and I’ve tried making the edit in my header.php or left-panel.php in the child theme, but can’t find where to make the edit (do not see /register anywhere).

I want the Register button to direct to /membership-sign-up so that potential new users see the sales page and from their they have the option to choose the free membership and go to /register.

Hi @bryceevans, In left-panel.php edit the line 35:

<a href="<?php echo bp_get_signup_page(); ?>" class="register-link screen-reader-shortcut"><?php _e( 'Register', 'boss' ); ?></a>

with this:

<a href="http://yoururl.com" class="register-link screen-reader-shortcut"><?php _e( 'Register', 'boss' ); ?></a>

@pallavi – I tried that and it still seems to be going to /register

I am using s2Member as well, may that be affecting it?
