    Hey – how do I make a user logout button or link that appears on the front of the site (I’m using theme twentyten) and redirects back to the home page?

    Thanks!
    Leah

    that depends on where you want the logout to show:

    for instance, you could put it quite visible at the top of the sidebar:

    edit sidebar.php of TwentyTen; find:

    <div id="primary" class="widget-area" role="complementary">
		<ul class="xoxo">

    change it to:

    <div id="primary" class="widget-area" role="complementary">
		<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { ?><ul class="xoxo"><li id="logout" class="widget-container">
				<h3 class="widget-title"><a href="<?php echo wp_logout_url( get_bloginfo('url') ); ?>" title="Logout">Logout</a></h3></li></ul><?php } ?>
			<ul class="xoxo">

    —
    or into the bottom line in the footer:
    edit footer.php; find:

    </div><!-- #site-info -->

			<div id="site-generator">

    change it to:

    </div><!-- #site-info -->

			<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { ?><div class="logout" style="float:left;"><a href="<?php echo wp_logout_url( get_bloginfo('url') ); ?>" title="Logout">Logout</a></div><?php } ?>

			<div id="site-generator">
