Create link in login template

In my site is a custom registration form. When a new customer is trying to checkout the customer is presented with a page stating that he/she must be logged in to proceed to checkout. They can click on the login link and getting the login page. (see screen)

When they are new they must register. In the image above is a text stated to proceed to the “Shipping and Billing” section. This is just text. See the code below.
```
<?php
    woocommerce_login_form(
        array('message'  => __( 'If you have shopped with us before, please enter your details in the boxes below. If you are a new customer please proceed to the Billing & Shipping section.', 'woocommerce' ),
            'redirect' => wc_get_page_permalink( 'checkout' ),
            'hidden'   => true
        )
    );
?>
```
This code is in the form-login.php template file.

I want to change the words “Shipping and Billing” into a link to my User Registration page. Somehow I’m not able to get it to work. Is it because it is in a message in an array? Any help is appreciated.

Try the following.
```
<?php

$register_url = 'http://mywoostore.com/register';

woocommerce_login_form(
    array('message'  => __( 'If you have shopped with us before, please enter your details in the boxes below. If you are a new customer please <a href="'.esc_url($register_url ).'">register here</a>.', 'woocommerce' ),
        'redirect' => wc_get_page_permalink( 'checkout' ),
        'hidden'   => true
    )
);

?>
```
Let me know how it goes.

Hi Kharis,

Thank you for your reply. It works great.
Two questions are coming up:

1) Because I’m developing on a local machine I have set the url in the template fixed: http://stockphotosite.dev/user-registration. That means that when the online site is updated I have to change it. Is there a way to set it in a relative manner?

2) This concernes te link in conjunction with WPML. I am creating the site in English but I have also a translation to dutch. The permalink structure will then be: http://stockphotosite.dev/nl/user-registration. I can’t test it because the user registration form is not ready yet so there is no translation. Do you perhaps know if your suggested code change will work with the dutch translation or do I simply have to test it.

Perhaps we can achieve this when we are able to incorporate a bit of code to obtain the correct url at the beginning (see question 1) of the template file. However I have no idea haw to accomplish that.

Hope to hear from you soon.

@kharis,

Found it for now.

I changed the code

$register_url = 'http://mywoostore.com/register';

Into

$register_url = get_permalink('4491');

Thanks!
