I want to have a login username and password field in the header, and a registration link beside it. I want the registration link to go away once the user is logged in and the login fields to be replace with a logout link.

I have found these two snippets but they don't help me achieve what I want.

  • Thanks, however. that doesn't remove the login box after login, or provide a register link.

  • Straight from the Codex wp_register() functions description: "This tag displays either the Site Admin link if the user is logged in or Register link if the user is not logged in." The if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) can be wrapped around any of those three functions - also around the wp_login_form() function. So everything you asked for is in those 5 lines of the answer including links to the Codex and the according description. - Btw: As mentioned above: Please provide your "snipplets" including an explanation how and where you placed them.
