How do I edit wp-login.php?

I know that this probably is not a classipress problem. But anyway, when I trie to translate/change text in the wp-login php file it doesn't change. It still says "username" and "password" even after I've translated it. What do I do wrong? What do I need to do? Thank you.

It's best not to edit core files directly but use a plugin instead otherwise updates will be a pain.

Have a look at theme my login.

Ok, I gave it a try and activated the plugin. But I still can't figure out where to edit the text. I completely translated the classipress theme into swedish and now it's only the login/register-files left. Is it because it's a core-file it's not working? When I upgrade later on I just copy original wp-login file into the wp directory.

the wp-login file is in the root of your wordpress install.

What you need to do is open custom-options.php in the functions folder in classipress theme directory and after line 100 or so you have the section





<label for="user_login"><?php _e('Username:','cp') ?></label>

<input name="log" value="<?php echo attribute_escape(stripslashes($_POST['log'])); ?>" class="mid" id="user_login" type="text" />




<label for="user_pass"><?php _e('Password:','cp') ?></label>

<input name="pwd" class="mid" id="user_pass" type="password" />




</p>

Replace Username and Password in ?php _e( sections with whatever you want.
