Thank you very much for the response. Where would I find the "register_macros" template? I thought it would be in Appearance > Templates, but there is no template in there with that name. Is there a different place that I might find it?
My login/registration page is located at /login, and it is very basic right now. What I would like to do is add a paragraph to the page explaining why users should register. Ideally, the paragraph would be placed above the login box where users would type in their username. It would also be fine if the paragraph was placed at the way top of the page. I have the paragraph itself written out, so I just need to know how to insert the text on to that page.

It should be there.
Use the search box where you see
regist inserted in the upper right.

I believe this user is asking for the 1.x branch

Yep... caught that.... doubt very many here are still running the 1.x line.... luckily Brogan chimed in.
I wish that they would style the 1.5/2.x prefixes differently colors.. make it stand out a little easier.

Thank you very much for all of your help. I did find the register_form template now, but how exactly would I add the text to the template? What do I need to add and then edit?

So when I add the paragraph, what is the best way to get it added by using that template? Do you have an example something like:
Look for "this text" in the template.
Add "this text" here in the template.
Edit the part in red with the text you want to add.
?
Something like that would be very helpful. Thank you.

Is there a phrase setup to add a message to the top of the registration/sign up page? If not, is there any way to add one without a custom add on?

Thank you. Okay, I created the phrase, and I put the paragraph that I want to add to the page as the phrase text. I am now trying to call up the phrase, but for some reason it isn't displaying on the page. Where in the template coding would be the best place to insert the phrase? I am editing the register_form template, and the code that I am adding to the template is:
But no changes appear on the login/sign-up page, so either I'm putting that code in the wrong place or something else isn't working. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!
