: Invisible text in login module
: vidaro February 02, 2015, 08:02:08 PM
Hi
The login module does not work. When members try to write the username and password nothing shows up. It is possible to login but they dont because the text is invisible. Any idea? gratispengespill.com (http://gratispengespill.com)
Thanks

Can you go to my site gratispengespill.com (http://gratispengespill.com) and try the login module ?

Thanks

Hello,

It's an issue with bootstrap and how it calls font-sizes for inputs. You can try adding the following to custom.css:

.userdata input {
font-size:12pt !important;
}

Hi
I add the code to the template inclines custom.css but it does not solve the problem.

The code does not work so what can cause this problem and how to fix this ?  The only extension I have innstalled is admin tools and JCE editor.

Hello,

I tested that same code in firebug yesterday on your site and it is working there. I don't see the login module on your site anymore to test it again.

Hi
To find the login module you must go to the meny item "logg inn".

Hello,

I just tested the module on your site and the text is visible to me. I am not seeing anything "invisible" within the login module.

Hello

The login module works again.

Thanks  :)

HI Mike,

I'm having the same problem on my site with Incline's S5 login module:
http://www.go2japan.org/a2/ (http://www.go2japan.org/a2/)

As you've recommended, I've added this code to my custom.css file, including an "!important" color distinction:
:
.userdata input {
font-size:12pt !important;
color: #000000 !important;
}

It still doesn't work right. And, I'm not sure that the text is transparent, because when I try to highlight any text that I've typed into the login fields, nothing is even highlighted. It seems like you can't even click into a field to type text at all.

Yet, I can login when my browser automatically types in my saved credentials. But other members, especially newer users, are terribly confused. The only way they can login is to leave the login fields empty, and click the login button on the S5 box, which then takes them to the regular login page ( http://go2japan.org/a2/sign-in ) and enter their credentials there. Whatever error is happening, it's only happening in the S5 login box, not the regular Joomla login fields.

On a hunch, I turned OFF my ReCaptcha plugin, and the S5 Login module worked fine. Seems like it is a conflict between the two.

Hello,

The Login Module is the one provide with Joomla by default. We do use a module called S5 Register since the default registration element in Joomla is in an article type form. Within the S5 Register we do not use ReCatpcha but a built in Captcha function exclusive to the module. If you have ReCaptcha enabled you may need to disable it in the Global Configuration settings so the module isn't trying to load 2 different forms of security inputs.

Sorry Mike, I meant the Joomla login module wasn't working, not the S5 register module. When the user clicks the LOGIN button, the S5 box pops up and has login fields. Users could not click in or type into either Username or Password fields. When I turned off ReCaptcha (which I use for the Contacts contact form), then the LOGIN module worked fine.

Hmm,

That is an odd one as the Login Module just echos the default Joomla Form into a Module instead. Was the inputs just not accepting any values or was there a submission error? I would have to see the issue live to get an idea of why it happens.

Mike, this has actually happened to several other users who have posted in this Incline forum. There were no errors, because you couldn't even click into either Username or Password fields or type into them either.

The problem did not persist in the joomla login page, just within the S5 box.

Hello,

I still need to see a live copy where the issue occurs so I can test this. I am not seeing any issues on my currently installed copy but can test further if needed. I have seen issues with added padding values in bootstrap forcing font outside of the actual inputs so it looks like nothing is there.

Several users posted the same problem in this Incline forum:
  • this current thread
  • http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,75/topic,38058.0/ (http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,75/topic,38058.0/)
  • http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,75/topic,38450.0/ (http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,75/topic,38450.0/)

Users couldn't even click into the Username or Password fields at all, let alone enter text. So it never even got to the point of a login error.

It was only in the S5 login box, not the normal Joomla login page.

UPDATE: For whatever it's worth, disabling ReCaptcha worked. Then I re-enabled Re-Captcha, and the login form (S5 box) via the top button works fine. Not sure why, but it's now working.

Hello,

All those threads are closed and have posted solutions. The issue is based on certain padding or font size values added by Joomla's bootstrap that can cause issues. It would also appear to the user that they can't enter text when in reality it is just being padding outside of the box itself. I don't see how recaptcha would affect this functionality but it is possible you had something cached that was causing problems.

As I see in your red text it appears fine now for you after re-enabling so maybe the cache got cleared in this process.

Regards,

That might make sense if I had cache enabled on my Joomla site, but it's currently disabled. And it wasn't the browser cache, because this odd behavior occurred in three different browsers.

But since the problem is now fixed, there's no need to keep this thread growing further. Perhaps it might help someone down the road, though.

Thanks Mike!

No problem. Glad everything worked out here.
