    It would be nice to have ...

    I think it would be nice to have at least two additions to this forum:

    - Login button for "easy" manual logins (regardless of 'Enable Cookies' settings). When you logout there is no way to quick re-login unless prompted.
    - 'View My Posts' option for registered users available on evry page so you don't have to use 'search by ...' option.

    Hope it makes sence.

    On the main page, there is a login spot hidden at the bottom of the page. It helps a little.
    My evil laugh has a squeak in it.

    I thought that was the request of the thread? When you logout there is no way to quick re-login unless prompted. Is the quote.

    Your ovservation is correct though like Hobo pointed out there is a login box exist at the bottom of the screen.

    The most silly thing is that even when you log out, the button still stays as "Log Out" where as it should change to "Login" and that should point to "Login" page.

    I guess this is to do with vbBulletin and not with VBF and since they are not willing to change any code (it will take 2/3 lines of code change) we will have to do with the login form at the bottom of the screen. Lets hope we upgrade to version 3 soon

    Spetnik i meant change of the Logout button at the top, you will need a if statement to check.
    e.g (Pseducode)

    Code:
    if user is logged in 
         show logout button //source of image e.g logout.gif
         set the link to logout page //e.g logout.php
    else
        show the login button //source of the image e.g login.gif
        set the link to login page //e.g login.php
    end if
    I think you meant the placement of login/logout box that hobo pointed out, yes that you can change by modifying template.
