I'm working on a redesign right now. You can see the work in progress at http://www.antisource.info, log in with guest/guest.
My primary issue is that while testing out the new install, if I create a new block, I get an error message that I don't have permission (even if I'm logged in as admin).
The second issue is more of a design dilemma - I have a logon bar in my header, and what I would like to do is have this bar change with the user's account menu when they are logged in. What's a good way to accomplish this?
I'm rewriting this whole template from scratch, boy is that a lot of work!

if your logon bar is in your header.thtml, you could put in some PHP to handle the display of that bar. a simple if / else checking $_USER['uid'].The second issue is more of a design dilemma - I have a logon bar in my header, and what I would like to do is have this bar change with the user's account menu when they are logged in.

I don't have an answer for your 1st question though.. sorry

Where's the routine for the default user's logon block? Could I just call that function and change the formatting in a template file?

Yes, just call COM_showBlock( user_block, $help='', $title='User Functions' ); from your header.thtml file then change the template file like you said.
Yes I am mental.

I tried that and it didn't work. I just put in:
Is that wrong?
Text Formatted Code
<?php COM_showBlock( user_block, $help='', $title='User Functions' ); ?>Is that wrong?

Hmm... I just tried to post a test article, and it worked this time. I wonder if I was having an issue with IE caching or cookies at work...
