Hi Saber,

Yeah that should be possible, the next links should give you some clues (even if those are for other styles!)

I'm almost sure if you use the search function of the board there will be some more

Offtopic tip: be carefull what IP-numbers you use, you tend to use blacklisted ones here and there

No not yours, not here, what I meant is that some of your IP's happen to be blacklisted in a database (stop forum spam), if you like you can use the IP Spy in the portal at my site to see the reports (linked in the sig below).
I just thought you should know

I'm not quite sure what you mean, but if you mean what i think you mean... have you tried something like this?

Code: [Hide] [Select]

<a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a>

If it's not what you mean, please try to explain more by giving a link, your failing code, screenshots or whatever it takes to make it clear

Well this is starting to sound more like a mod request

If you would like the loginbox to disapear after the user has logged in it should not be so hard, you could take a close look at this example and rewrite it to fit your box:

Code: [Hide] [Select]

<!-- IF not S_USER_LOGGED_IN and not S_IS_BOT -->

<br clear="all" />

<form method="post" action="{S_LOGIN_ACTION}">

<div><div class="tbl-h-l"><div class="tbl-h-r"><div class="tbl-h-c"><div class="tbl-title"><h4><a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a></h4></div></div></div></div>

<table class="tablebg" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

<tr>

	<td class="row1" align="center" valign="middle"><img src="{T_THEME_PATH}/images/login.png" alt="" /></td>

	<td class="row1" align="center"><span class="genmed">{L_USERNAME}:</span> <input class="post" type="text" name="username" size="10" />  <span class="genmed">{L_PASSWORD}:</span> <input class="post" type="password" name="password" size="10" />  <!-- IF S_AUTOLOGIN_ENABLED --> <span class="gensmall">{L_LOG_ME_IN}</span> <input type="checkbox" class="radio" name="autologin" /><!-- ENDIF -->  <input type="submit" class="btnmain" name="login" value="{L_LOGIN}" /></td>

</tr>

<tr><td class="cat-bottom" colspan="2"> </td></tr>

</table>

<div class="tbl-f-l"><div class="tbl-f-r"><div class="tbl-f-c"> </div></div></div></div>

{S_LOGIN_REDIRECT}

{S_FORM_TOKEN}

</form>

<!-- ENDIF -->

(Strip what you don't need and make sure it's not all in one line anymore)

Otherwise I would start researching how one of the many available portals do this, they usually show user stuff (like name, avatar etc) after the login.

I hope you do realize the box is already in the index page when a user is not logged in, so that one + the one in the top menubar + your idea would give you 3 ways to login on one page, isn't that a bit too much of a good thing?
