Pasan Gamage Explains How to Customize Drupal Login Links
Pasan Gamage. a Senior Backend Developer at Digital Garden, recently published a guide on how to customize the core user account menu links in Drupal, specifically changing the 'Login' and 'Log out' text to 'Sign in' and 'Sign out.' Pasan's approach involves overriding the default Drupal behavior using a custom module rather than applying JavaScript.
His tutorial, detailed on his Medium blog and GitHub repository, includes creating a new file in the custom module that extends the functionality of the original Drupal core files. This modification allows for more intuitive user interface terminology and enhances the user experience by aligning the language more closely with common web standards. Pasan provides full code examples and setup instructions, ensuring that even those new to Drupal development can implement these changes successfully.
