Hi, I am copying an existing site design into a myBB template and I would like to have a Login, Register, and Search link at the top but I don't know how to make it so that when they are logged in it instead shows a Log out link. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is the thread link: [edit]
Edit: I fixed this problem by making this plugin. Basically there are two variables you can edit and it will display one or the other depending on whether or not a user is logged in. Then you can place {$userbox} anywhere in your them and it will display the code.
No, the css still needs some fine tuning and the link was black on black. I moved it up to the footer with the rest of the links.
I hope making a plugin isn't necessary for making something simple like this.
do you need wordpress login / logout at the top of forum ? may be its better to simply remove those 2 links !!
Well ya, ideally I would like it to be the same in WP and myBB for consistency.
Like:
WP Top links (logged in):
Search, Logout
WP Top links (logged out):
Search, Login, Register, FB Connect
myBB Top links (logged in):
Search, Logout
myBB Top links (logged out):
Search, Login, Register, FB Connect
The search is a constant link so that is fine, and the FB connect is a plugin so that works but I need to replace the login and register with logout when a user is logged in.
^ that requires wordpress login / logout code { may be along with cookie set .. }
Sorry I should have been more clear. The myBB and Wordpress share a user database but not a cookies. So, basically they are separate.
The register and fbconnect links is a constant link (both mybb and wp) to the mybb registration form. Each software has its own logout and login link which behave as normal.
I'm writing a quick plugin now but I was hoping there was a simpler method.
Its pretty obvious your theme is built off accord. You should add the copyright back.
Okay, I fixed my issue with a simple plugin. I'm still interested if there is a better way and if anyone wants the code just pm me.
