Modifying the header-login.php file

numericni · October 2021

Hello, how could I modify this file without having a problem when updating the template?

It is currently like this in header-login.php:

echo '<h4>'. sprintf( __( 'Hello %s,', 'woocommerce' ), esc_html( wp_get_current_user()->user_login ) ) .'</h4>';

I would like to show the client's name

echo '<h4>'. sprintf (__ ('Hello% s,', 'woocommerce'), esc_html (wp_get_current_user () -> name)). '</h4>';

Regards

Hello,

If you want to modify the theme files and keep your changes, you will have to use a child theme.

Please, visit the following link:

There you will find an explanation of how to set a child theme properly.

hi, i'm currently occupying the theme child , i just copy and paste the modified file in the same path?

It would be great if you did functions something like this for example:

if (function_exists('header_login')) {

function header_login(){

}

so we can extend the function from the theme child and improve it without touching the parent theme .
