User registration/login – how to?

  • Hi there,

    I have some questions regarding user registration:

    1) I want to use WordPress to host multiple user’s blogs (1 blog per user). In the Administration->Options page I have checked “Anyone can register”. However when the main site is displayed, I don’t see a Register link. Why is that happening and how can I show it?

    2) There is no Login link on the front page of my site. I thought that’s a pretty much standard functionality of any web community. How can I display it?

    Better suited for wordpress MU the same software wordpress.com uses.

    <?php wp_register();>
<?php wp_loginout();>

    The code for registration and login links respectively. Just add these to your template wherever you would like them to show.

    I installed WordPress MU but I don’t get the register link by default again.

    Does this mean that there is no way that I can avoid changing theme code manually?

    are you logged in? You won’t see the register link if you’re already logged in. Log out and see if it shows up. If the code that jeremyclark13 gave you is there, it should show up.

    I am logged out. The code is not there – I am using a default setup.

    In fact the code is there by default. I just checked the sidebar.php file from the theme and it has the following lines:

    ...
<ul>
<?php wp_register(); ?>
<li><?php wp_loginout(); ?></li>
...

    Still the login/logout link is there but not the register link??
