no register link on frontpage
We've just upgraded from 2.3 to 3.0 and it appeared to go smoothly except for
a couple of minor problems with the front page.
I've created a new front page using the frontpage template. It looks fine
except that the Register link is missing and I'v noticed that after logging
in the front page always displays the login link instead of logout(or should
it?).
I have the "Allow New Users" property set in the admin configuration page.
And this is set to true in the roller_properties in the database.
What would be causing this?

Thanks. I committed a fix for that.

That is intended. A weblog can have multiple users.

I ended up doing something like that.
I added this to the header template which displays the login or logout link
and checks the site config to see if registration is enabled.
#if( $utils.isUserAuthenticated() != true)
$url.login Login
#else
$url.logout Logout
#end
#if ($config.registrationEnabled == true)
| $url.absoluteSite/roller-ui/user.do?method=registerUser Register
#end
While we're at it, isn't the User Guide link in footer wrong? I changed it
to this.
http://rollerweblogger.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=UserGuide
And didn't the weblog name instead of the user name used to show up in the
Hot blogs list? I changed that to this.
<li> $url.site/$blog.subjectNameShort $blog.subjectNameLong
($blog.subjectNameShort) | $blog.count</li>

And FYI: Frontpage theme should include a register link

The frontpage theme does not provide a register link.
If you'd like one, then customize the theme and add a link on the
"_header" page.
For example, I did it by adding the registerUser link in the banner like so:
<td class="bannerRight">
<a href="$url.absoluteSite">$config.siteName</a> |
<a
href="$url.absoluteSite/roller-ui/yourWebsites.do">Main Menu</a> |
<a
href="$url.absoluteSite/roller-ui/user.do?method=registerUser">Register</a>
|
<a href="$url.login">Login</a>
</td>
