   I would like to know how. Where when ppl login, it will show his/her name. And if not, it will show as Guest.

   Placing the following code into your template in the place you want to display your users name:

   <?php global $user_identity;
   get_currentuserinfo();

   if ($user_identity == '') {
   echo('Welcome Guest');
   } else {
   echo('Welcome ' . $user_identity);
   }
   ?>

   I can make this into a sidebar widget if that's how you'd like to use it.

   Yes, it's good, but how do you make the word BOLD for identity?

   <?php global $user_identity;
   get_currentuserinfo();

   if ($user_identity == '') {
   echo('Welcome Guest');
   } else {
   echo('Welcome <b>' . $user_identity . '</b>');
   }
   ?>
