Hook before ProcessLogin::execute not working

[Sandy]

Hi - Any idea why this isn't working?...

I want to render a message on the login screen, so added a hook to the /site/ready.php file:

<?php namespace ProcessWire;

if(!defined("PROCESSWIRE")) die();

$this->addHookBefore('ProcessLogin::execute', function(HookEvent $event) {

    echo "Test Message";

});

Any idea why it's not rendering anything? I copied the code straight from here: https://processwire.com/api/ref/process-login/execute/

Thanks

FYI, it's writing the message just fine when the code's placed outside the hook, so ready.php is working as expected.

Unfortunately I have nothing to contribute, but I tested your exact code on a PW 3.0.183 installation of mine and it worked as expected, so maybe the problem lies somewhere else?

Thanks Jan. Yes, I've also got roughly the same code running successfully on another site, so it must be a setting somewhere.

Any ideas where to look for something that could interfere with a hook like that?

@Sandy Did you manage to discover what was the issue that hooks don't work inside /site/ready.php?
