Huge, Huge help Michael – thanks a million. In my searches I could not find anything close. Here is what I put together:
<!-- "write a new post" link if logged in -->
<?php global $user_login; get_currentuserinfo();
if ($user_login) :?>
<li><a href="/wp-admin/post.php">Write a New Post</a></li>
<?php endif; ?>
<!-- register,login/logout links -->
<?php wp_register(); ?>
<li><?php wp_loginout(); ?>
<?php global $user_login, $user_identity;
get_currentuserinfo();
if ($user_login); ?>
<?php echo $user_identity; ?>
</li>
Works like a charm, and I even learned how to add a direct link to the “Write Page” er, page. Again a million thanks.
Thanks for copying that code over here, heyr. That was useful for one of my blogs. I just used the part,
<?php global $user_login, $user_identity;
get_currentuserinfo();
if ($user_login); ?> Welcome
<?php echo $user_identity; ?> !
