Answer 1

Keycloak's login page is built using Freemarker templates. These are stored in Themes folder inside Keycloak. You can edit these FLT files inside Keycloak's theme folder and make any changes you want - like adding a link to another URL/resource/etc.

The base login theme can be found here -

/standalone/configuration/themes/base/login/login.ftl

Themes can be deployed in multiple ways - as a folder/module/jar. They need to be dropped under -

standalone/configuration/themes

Answer 2

Under keycloak-9.0.3/themes/base/login/ you can find standard templates which names and content you can use for customization. Eg login-reset-password.ftl . Then it's recommended better to create a custom theme and under it copy/create your custom template.

At the end don't forget to change the "Login Theme" to your custom one on Keycloak Admin Panel under "Realm Settings" -> "Theme".
