Are you just trying to get that form to show up at a different URL? You can use path.module for that to effectively "rename" user/login.
I did figure that out. If all else fails, this may be what I have to settle for.
You can, of course, also just have the login block on the desired page(s).
Yeah, this isn't quite it either, because the "login block" will still be in the "fixed" location that you specify the block to be at under Administer->blocks.
Can you be more specific about what you're trying to do?
Basically, I want to create a page/node so that when you access it, it shows you the username and password text fields. You may be asking, how's this different than simply doing a url alias to http://localhost/user/login? I'm hoping to customize the look of the user login screen.
If I do the url aliasing, then I can customize a node, add a "click here to login" link, which then simply points them to the http://localhost/user/login. This seems kind of silly. Seems like if the node can have a link to the login page, then why not simply display the login prompt?
I hope I've clarified what I'm asking. Thanks for your effort. -- Jiann-Ming Su "I have to decide between two equally frightening options.
