Functions.php user login box
-
My WP is going to be used as a CMS for my family to pass pictures, news, etc. on to each other since we are spread out over the US. Its also integrated with bbPress.
I’m using a template for the sandbox theme and currently creating a custom functions.php that will display a user options box and links etc. when the user is logged in, and a Login/Register link when they are logged out. However, I’m not aware of any template tags that allow me to display a username to the currently logged in user, not the author of the current post. Can anyone help me?
Here is the code inside
function login_box()
so far(Since I’m using sandbox I figure I can use the body classloggedin
to display whichdiv.loginbox
is neccessary without doing any extra php):<div id="in" class="loginbox"> <span id="greeting">Hello, User</span> <a href="/wp/wp-admin/profile.php"> <img id="userpic">User pic goes here(using a user avatar plugin)</img> <p id="userbio">User bio goes here</p><!-- may or may not be included, depending on space, etc. --> </a> <div id="bbpress">bbPress links and notifications will go here</div> <div id="themeswitch">Theme Switcher dropdown box functions called here</div> <span id="loginout"><?php wp_loginout(); ?></span> </div> <div id="out" class="loginbox"> <span id="loginout"><?php wp_loginout(); ?></span> <span id="register"><?php wp_register(); ?></span> </div>
Also, if you have any suggestions on using WP and bbPress together as a CMS please feel free to add them!
