 * Hello,
 * I am about to start creating a website for a client and will need a login section
   for registered users where they will see a different menu bar or extra menu bars.
   eg
 * Non Registered members will see:
 * Home | About | Contact Us | Login / Register
 * Registered users will see:
    Home | About | Contact Us | **Buy Products** | Logout
   |
 * The Login section has to be viewable by all and on the front-end of the website.
   Once logged in they will see the extra menu on the top or a menu that I will 
   create on the sidebar.
 * Anyone got any Ideas if there is a plugin or anything?
 * Thanks
 * Justin

 * Try this:
 *     ```
       <?php if ( $user_ID ) { ?>
           <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/wp-login.php">Login/Register</a>
       <?php } else {   ?>
           <a href="buy products link">Buy Products</a>
           <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/wp-login.php?action=logout">Logout</a>
       <?php } ?>
       ```
   
 * I haven’t tested that, so make a backup before you change anything 🙂
