Login Users action in, $action_links, how do i edit it?
In D7, if you visit core FORUM module &amp; open forum.module file you will find this code between line no 186 to 208 -

if (empty($links)) {
        // Authenticated user does not have access to create new topics.
        if ($user-&gt;uid) {
          $links['disallowed'] = array(
            '#theme' =&gt; 'menu_local_action',
            '#link' =&gt; array(
              'title' =&gt; t('You are not allowed to post new content in the forum.'),
            ),
          );
        }
        // Anonymous user does not have access to create new topics.
        else {
          $links['login'] = array(
            '#theme' =&gt; 'menu_local_action',
            '#link' =&gt; array(
              'title' =&gt; t('&lt;a href="@login"&gt;Log in&lt;/a&gt; to post new content in the forum.', array(
                '@login' =&gt; url('user/login', array('query' =&gt; drupal_get_destination())),
              )),
              'localized_options' =&gt; array('html' =&gt; TRUE),
            ),
          );
        }
      }


This is responsible to generate the link &amp; text which you are talking about. But hacking core is not advisable so please find a way to do it in some other way..
