Is there any way that I could have a block appear only if a user is not logged in, or only if a user is logged in? Ive made a custom navigation block on my site that includes all the "User Functions" seen when logged in, but when I disable the user functions block, I also lose the Login/Register functions seen on that block if a site visitor is not logged in. I added a link to login or register at the bottom of my Navigation block, but its not really noticeable to new visitors. I want to make it easier for these new visitors to register or visitors to login by having that niticeable login box there, but I would like it to go away, or have it replaced by the Navigation block, whenever a visitor logs in. Is this possible? I dont see that option in the settings, so I figure it would have to be something with the coding of the box. If anyone could help, it would be much appreciated.

To see what I mean, visit my site (opens in new window).

the "menu" plugin would make this job a lot easier for you. you could have you login box and your nav box and when logged in only your nav box would be left. check it out here.
Your nav box would contain the user functions and even the admin functions if you want.. tis da bomb.

You can do that by setting the block's permissions accordingly.

However, the Login block is a bit different than the other blocks and you're probably better off using the Menu plugin in that case, as Machinari already suggested.
