Customizing Login Widget

In Customizing Login Form tutorial, you say to rename the file.

For this form, you say to make a copy and then rename the copy.

Should both files be available on the site? Or do we want only the CUSTOM file available?

ok i figured it out…if anyone needs it here it is –i copied this but added a few things…edit the else if statement on line 52 of plugins/DAP-WP-LiveLinks/DAP-LoginLogout.php to this:

else if(Dap_Session::isLoggedIn()) { //Logged in
$session = Dap_Session::getSession();
$user = $session->getUser();
$user = Dap_User::loadUserById($user->getId()); //reload User object
if(isset($user)) {
$firstname= $user->getFirst_name();
}
$logoutHTMLFilepath = “/DAP-WP-LiveLinks/DAP-WP-LogoutHTML.html”;
if( file_exists(WP_PLUGIN_DIR . “/DAP-WP-LiveLinks/customDAP-WP-LogoutHTML.html”) ) {
$logoutHTMLFilepath = “/DAP-WP-LiveLinks/customDAP-WP-LogoutHTML.html”;
}
$output = “Welcome ” . $firstname .”!”;
$output .= “”;
$output .= “My Profile—My Content“;
$output .= “”;
$output .= file_get_contents(WP_PLUGIN_DIR . $logoutHTMLFilepath);

echo $output;
} //End Logged In

/* After widget (defined by themes). */
echo $after_widget;
}

I’m new to all this. Yous say I can modify the login Widget at /wp-content/plugins/DAP-WP-LiveLinks/.

Can you give me the address that goes in front of /wp-content/plugins/DAP-WP-LiveLinks/ or how to get there?
