Get rid of "register" option if you have registered

I'm logged in to your board... so why is there still a link at the top of your board asking me to "register"?

I'm not logged in... so why is there a link to my "control panel"?

This bit of code will remove the pointless links from your forum, leaving it looking neater and using (a bit) less bandwidth.

Details: Two template edits, that's all.
Demo: http://forums.mediauk.com
Use Username: vbulletinorg Password: vbulletinorg so you can see both states. We use text rather than the standard graphics, but you'll find the graphic code enclosed in the hack documentation.

Ok, for the last step, editing the template, what and where do we exactly edit?

I put something in my phpinclude template like this:

if ($bbuserinfo[userid]) { // user is logged in
$pflink = linkto usercp.php
} else {
$pflink = linkto register.php
}

I then put $pflink in the header template in place of the buttons that show user cp/register. Do it this way and you don't have to edit anything when you upgrade.

In your header simply

Delete this :-

<a href="usercp.php?s=$session[sessionhash]"><img src="{imagesfolder}/top_profile.gif" alt="Here you can view your subscribed threads, work with private messages and edit your profile and preferences" border="0"></a>
<a href="register.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=signup"><img src="{imagesfolder}/top_register.gif" alt="Registration is free!" border="0"></a>

And replace it with :

$register_or_controlpanel

Tried and tested and works fine and the php edit is hardly brain surgery now is it
