How can I edit the login to ask question button

I want to create an Ajax popup login when clicking the “login to ask a question button” instead of directing to the wordpress login.

I installed and have set up ZM Login with Ajax, but I still need to figure out where to edit the login button.

Can anyone asset me on this?

Kind regards
Felix

Here is our site:http://stoogle.co.za/qa/You can see we created a Login button on the top left menu at the end.Which opens the AJAX login. I want to make the same functionality happen with the green login to ask a question button.I applied a css class .stoogle-login to the menu item to get the AJAX login to open on click.Thanks!

Hi Felix,

You can add <div class=”stoogle-login”></div> around the “login to ask a question” button to call ajax login.
Open file template-functions.php in the folder “wp-content\plugins\dw-question-answer\inc”

Find line 586 and replace code

 $button = '<a href="'.$submit_question_link.'" class="dwqa-btn '.$class.'">'.$label.'</a>';

with

$button = '<div class="stoogle-login"><a href="'.$submit_question_link.'" class="dwqa-btn '.$class.'">'.$label.'</a></div>';

Hope this helps!

Hi there, thanks so much for your help.It almost worked, it didn’t call the Ajax login on click, it still re-directed to the wp-login page.I only want to call the class when user is not logged in. Otherwise what happens is that the user cannot post a question because once logged in the button gets overridden to become a logout button.So I want to make it work that the Ajax login is called only when “Login to ask a question” is displayed.Any advice?

Hi Felix
Sorry for my previous help. I don’t think the case : user is looged in.
Please follow new guidelines. Replace line 586 of file template-functions.php with:

if( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
 $button = '<div class="stoogle-login"><a href="'.$submit_question_link.'" class="dwqa-btn '.$class.'">'.$label.'</a></div>';
 } else {
 $button = '<a href="'.$submit_question_link.'" class="dwqa-btn '.$class.'">'.$label.'</a>';
 }
