    Default Shopping Cart and Log Out/In links...

    I've completely removed the left and right columns, and turned off all modules within, because it's a very simple shopping cart, but...

    I find that there isn't a persistent link for logging out of one's account, or for accessing one's shopping cart throughout the pages.

    How can I find those things, turn them back on from the Admin, and/or place them where I want them within the layout I've built?

    The cart I'm working on is here:

    http://musicboxtheatre.org/espressories/

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks.

    Link to log OUT is
    nameofyourzencartsite.com/index.php?main_page=logoff
    REVERT back to Classic Template...all links you require
    will be shown there...governed by
    /includes/templates/classic/common/tpl_header.php

    Thank you so much for your reply - I may just use that log-out link to place where necessary, but I would prefer to be able to have a persistent link which is at the top of page, which is "Log In," and then "Log Out" when applicable...

    I've got a parallel installation of Zen Cart in another directory for investigation purposes like this, and the properties of the "log in" link in the default template are:

    Code:
    http://mysitename.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=login&zenid=ce08f82088f9b6ce43d5f4be8a236867
    Now, I don't have access to the corresponding thing on the site on which I'm working, because I've somehow gotten rid of it, which is the problem...

    Basically, what would be the php needed to get the login/logout link as the case may be - or is that possible? And/or, how would I get the "zenid" for the installation I'm ultimately going to use?

    And also, where is a link to access the shopping cart from wherever?

    I don't know php by the way... I might need things explained to me in tiny, tiny words, if there IS a possible explanation.

    ;)

    Thank you.

    NEVER EVER USE ZENID as part of link or your site is doomed!!
    Not sure what you want..something as per my own site
    which has permanent links..see
    http://dezinacart.com
    Can you explain further please?

    Thanks for the quick reply (I was a little surprised until I noticed you're in the UK... It's 3am where I am, but I have a really weird sleep schedule!)

    So yeah - I won't mess with the zen ID! Just wasn't sure if that could be part of a possible solution. Should I delete that in the post? Is it an immediate security issue, in that I shouldn't have it posted here?

    What you have on your site in the upper right corner is EXACTLY what I'm talking about!

    I'd love to have "Login, Account, Cart, Logout." Could you help me achieve just that?

    Thanks so much!

    YES and YES..however fortunately you did not include an actual
    url of a cart..so no harm done..
    Creating links..if your current template is going to be as per

    http://musicboxtheatre.org/espressories/

    Then could be achieved activating EZ pages, and adding
    necessary details there.
