Description of problem: The button "Sign Up" is always emphasized. Personally, I keep clicking on it even I already have registered accounts and login dozens of times. Please make the "login" is emphasized after I registered. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Zanata version 3.0.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT (20130812-0932) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Complete registration. 2. Click the activation link Actual results: "Login" is less obvious then "Sign Up". Expected results: Login is should be easier to spot than Sign Up, since you can now "Login". Additional info:
This depends on our goals. Having the signup be slightly more noticeable than the login link is a commonly used pattern that people are used to. What we should really be doing is automatically signing them in straight after they sign-up or if this is not possible at least taking them straight to the login page rather than making them click another link.
As far as I can see from the facebook, and Google, they put sign up and (In reply to Luke Brooker from comment #1) > This depends on our goals.

Google: Sign up is at the top right, Login is at the middle Facebook: Sign up is at the middle, Login is at the top right. Twitter: Sign up is at the right, Login is on upper of sign up. I should say that both "Sign Up" and "Login" are all in the easy-to-spot places, but different places. Usually, one in the middle, the other one at the top right. > What we should really be doing is automatically signing them in straight > after they sign-up or if this is not possible at least taking them straight > to the login page rather than making them click another link. That only works for the first login. They will still encounter the same problem on the 2nd, 3rd logins. I keep telling myself "Don't click that 'Sign up' button, you already registered!"
Good point on those. It's always a tricky thing on which one we should lean on more which is why I said it depends on our goals. I have a bunch of changes I want to make to the login/account screen but for now I will make a few tweaks to the prototype.
Changes have been merged into integration master. Purely to do with visual hierarchy of Sign Up/Log In buttons. https://github.com/zanata/zanata-server/pull/132 Should probably have a another bug to do with the sign up process, although we can do that as part of one big change.
The login box as the landing page is also a plus. Verified at 78afafcedc492dbbbdead971f566cc30733971ee
Closing VERIFIED bugs which predate Zanata 3.1.2.
