Question

Hi Support,

I apologise if this appears to be a trivial question, but I am a newbie. I am using the pattern skin and have removed the leftbar navigation. In doing so I "lost" my Log in/ Log out link. How can I insert the Log in/ Log out link to the view top bar template so it sits alongside the edit, wysiwyg, attach. printable?

Thanks

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

Sorry I also forgot to mention that I would like to attach links to the Webs (Main, Sandbox and Twiki).

Thanks

Have a look at WebLeftBarLogin. The html in that topic is customized for the left bar, but you should be able to copy the links:

%IF{"context authenticated" then='%MAKETEXT{"Hello [_1]" args="[[%WIKIUSERNAME%][%SPACEOUT{%WIKINAME%}%]]"}%'}%%IF{"$ LOGOUT != ''" then='%LOGOUT%'}%%IF{"$ LOGIN != '' and not context authenticated" then='%LOGIN% %MAKETEXT{"or"}% [[%TWIKIWEB%.TWikiRegistration][%MAKETEXT{"Register"}%]]'}%

I wouldn't place them next to the Edit and Attach buttons, but in the top bar, above or right to the search box.

Hey Arthur, thanks for your reply.

So I should be able to copy the script above and place it in the viewtopbar.pattern.templ?

Sorry if its a trivial question, im a newbie still learning.

Thanks

Correct.

Arthur, how would I attach the Web links (Main, Sandbox and TWiki).

FYI, I attached the code snipplet above to the viewtopbar.pattern.templ and the links appeared at the bottom of the page after the copyright information!

You should put the code for the top bar in TWiki.WebTopBar. That would also be a handy place for your webs.
