customization limited? #325

Closed Maxhodges closed 9 years ago

Maxhodges commented 9 years ago

If I have my own design for signin form, can useraccounts be customized this much? target design http://screencast.com/t/BHqBHpZZDxI

splendido commented 9 years ago

I'd say yes!

...in case you could accept a link in place of the Register button you could get very close using useraccounts:unstyled together with your own CSS styles.

The other possibility would be to create your own templates starting from a clone of useraccounts:unstyled!

Maxhodges commented 9 years ago

ah OK so I'm using the wrong package? we are using bootstrap, but I can't find a way to simply change at-signin to use btn-success instead of btn-default class. So I should add the unstyle package instead?

Cheers!

splendido commented 9 years ago

...you didn't mention you're using bootstrap ;-)

If you need to change elements' classes you have to clone useraccounts:bootstrap and start off it

you know any good articles on how to fork a meteor package? I forked it, added the files to my packages folder and changed the name and git values name: "whiterabbit:meteor-useraccounts-bootstrap", git: "https://github.com/white-rabbit-japan/meteor-useraccounts-bootstrap",

but I get no such template: atForm

Maxhodges commented 9 years ago

damn forking a package looks a bit too complicated for me: http://stackoverflow.com/a/26568387/861010

No plans to create a json file or options extension where button classes could be configured?

splendido commented 9 years ago

See Contributing for some details about how to work with lical packages.

You might also be intetested to read #212 about how to replace a template.

Also, please don't publish forked packages unless they provide sensible improvements we cannot include in the official ones.

splendido commented 9 years ago

Leaving the possibility to configure elements' classes is somethong we might think to introduce in some future release!

But perhaps giving a simpler way to specify custom templates would be enough?

Maxhodges commented 9 years ago

OK yes, thanks. I was able to override the template to change the class.

One more question: can this package play well with autoform? We have some customization of our user schema (to generate a human-friendly user_id). But I don't see how to get this to work.

splendido commented 9 years ago

Well, with useraccounts you actually get all the meal already cooked! it's wear you didn't manage to register a new user.

Lets try to get started with the boilerplates!

splendido commented 9 years ago

my last reply was for your original last comment...

I think there's no way to integrate autoform schrmas into atForm. Honestly I never used it but I see it hard for the two packages to play nice together.

Let me know if you manage to use autoform, it would be something interesting to add to the guide!
