Flaw in TM design....there's no logout button

Ok, I need to figure out where and how to add a logout button to this template. Can anyone help?

Thanks so much,

Are you planning on ever using any languages beside English? If not, the languages choice field is misleading anyway, and should be removed. That would free up space for the login/logout button.

The my account button should not show until logged in anyway (per ZC default behavior).

Where does the checkout button show when there is something in the cart? Just checked - it doesn't show anywhere except from the shopping cart page itself.

The privacy and shipping & returns links are in the information sidebox already - perhaps privacy can be replaced by checkout... Can you enable the shopping cart sidebox so customers can tell at a glance what if anything they have in their cart?

Ashley-

Please be sure to report the problems you are having to TM.

** Yes, this is exactly what I would like to do. Where does this code exist in a basic zen structure. They seemed to have followed the Zen design for the most part. So, it would likely be wherever it is normally. Although, I don't know this for a fact.**

For my needs, this is not really a problem. Most folks who shop at my store shop at other Zen stores. So, they are pretty familiar with the overall design.

I did this so you could see it

Yeah, I need to. Although, I find myself frustrated in dealing with them. That's why I am asking you! LOL! But, I promise I will. :D

The header language choice is not standard; the stock version is a sidebox which you can turn off in admin. There are mods for language and currency (among others) to go in the header. The code would likely be in tpl_header.php, but you never know with TM.

If your customers use other ZC stores, they likely know that by default, there is always a checkout link immediately visible when the cart has contents. The idea is to make it as easy as possible to buy.

Showing some indication of the shopping cart contents is in the same vein; don't make them guess whether they already have that widget in their cart. If they have to click away from the product to find out, that's one more chance for them to wander off. And if they add it to their cart and find they now have two when they only wanted one, you have just annoyed them.

You have no idea how relevant this is...I am sitting in a web design class talking about web design concepts just like this.

I don't have the site files on my laptop but, I will check when I get home. :)

I fixed it, thanks to ya'lls guidance. I checked an old tpl_header file for the code I needed to insert. Then, I modified the one that was there. I even managed to add the "checkout" button just for Kim. LOL! Thanks so much for your help! :D
