Do you want to customize the Register link on your WordPress login page? If user registration is allowed on your site, you can see a Register link on your login page, just below the sign in box. With our snippet, you can easily change the Register text to any other such as Sign Up.
Instructions:
All you have to do is add this code to your theme’s functions.php file or in a site-specific plugin:
add_filter( 'gettext', 'register_text' );
add_filter( 'ngettext', 'register_text' );
function register_text( $translated ) {
$translated = str_ireplace( 'Register', 'Sign Up', $translated );
return $translated;
}
Note: If this is your first time adding code snippets in WordPress, then please refer to our guide on how to properly copy / paste code snippets in WordPress, so you don’t accidentally break your site.
