Log In in SmugMug Footer

I've added password entry to my site but I find that the page also has "Log In" in the SmugMug Footer. I fear that new visitors might see this as an entry choice, become confused and leave.
Can I remove "Log In' and retain "Powered by SmugMug"?

Every time my computer somehow drops the login I have to go to the general Smugmug site.
This is a pain and lord help me if it happens on my laptop since I would need the memory of 16 1/2 elephants to remember all my passwords.

Just add a menu content block to your footer (or wherever you want it) and choose the login/logout link as the only menu item:
It'll toggle between login and logout as appropriate.

Fast and great response!!

Add this to your theme's CSS:

I will revisit this in a couple of weeks...................:cry
Sam
I'm going to guess that you have this in your theme's CSS because you need to use that to HIDE the Smugmug credentials.

You have this (in red) in one of your HTML/CSS boxes on your home page:

Make sure you're adding the login/logout link to a new menu content block, not your existing one. It should be all alone like the screenshot I posted.
Dave
That said I REALLY do appreciate all your help, but:
What kind of content block? Text? HTML? CSS?
Also I lost the login / log out link. How do I make a new one.
Mike:
Yes I can see this in a content block. Now what?
div.sm-user-ui div.sm-lightbox-content div.sm-lightbox-info { display: none; } .sm-page-powered-by a { display: none;
Think of me as a new photographer. You can't just say change the shutter speed, aperture,
and iso without also telling how and why to do it.:D
I really shy away from trying too much on the website because I don't understand how,
or why it works, but I do know that I don't know.

You could also add links. Then the URLs would be:
Logout: https://secure.smugmug.com/logout?goTo=http://www.samlinvillephotography.com/
Login: https://secure.smugmug.com/login?goTo=http://http://www.samlinvillephotography.com/
I have another option...
I changed the wordpress and youtube icons to a smug mug smile and a red x in a circle for the social icons content block by adding this code to my CSS block (valid on entire page):
And then added the social icons content block to the bottom of my page and set the wordpress and youtube links to the logout / login links from above (just given for my own page of course). The "?goTo=http://www.samlinvillephotography.com/" at the end of the link makes sure your visitor returns at least to your homepage and is not diverted to the smug mug home page by the way.
Good luck

Remove it. You must have added that at some point. That removes the "Powered by Smugmug" and the login text.

If I remove .sm-page-powered-by a { display: none; Then I will get "powered by Smugmug" back, but I don't want this back. I will not get Login / log out back because it is no longer available on my site.
Lille,
Thank you so much for the time you spent but I haven't a clue about word press / youtube, SmugMug icon conversions.
I tried to add the Log In / Log Out URLs but they vanished and I was not able to add any new content blocks to the bottom of my home page.
Right now is not a great time.
My refrigerator is boiling eggs, my stove is freezing my tofu, my microwave puts on a lighting show complete with sound effects when turned on, my travel trailer is tearing up tires, my internet is intermittently dropping my connection, my new product photography shooting table florescent tubes are dead and china has stopped making them and I can not find any direct replacements in the entire world, I had a client bail on payment and vanish., etc.
I drove up to the Golden Gate bridge, but the damn do gooder's put up catch fencing so leaping off to paradise was thwarted. So all I accomplished was wasting gas. :cry
I am contemplating a trip to Oregon, where as I understand it, one can obtain magic herbal remedies.:D
Until then: :bash:bash:bash:bash:bash:bash:bash:bash:bash:bash

And I perfectly know how you are feeling. My camera is at the repair shop, they told me it would take a week well now almost three weeks have passed and I haven't got it back, instead they send it of to France... I want my camera (repaired) back...
Additionally I have found so many typos in my calendars that I have on the market right now that I start wondering if ovens are meant to put heads into...
So don't worry. You are not alone.
And once you get the rest sorted (fridges, stoves, runaway clients) you'll just send a short note and I'll guide you through it step by step.

There's a lot going on in this thread with all kinds of code, some of which probably isn't being directed toward you because you kinda hijacked an unrelated thread. This is a super simple problem to fix that doesn't require any code. It requires a menu content block with a single link. Put it wherever you want on your site in the "entire site" area.
Dave
That's it, Hikin' Mike. Many thanks. I must get to grips with CSS.
Brian
Thanks, I was looking for this fix.
Thanks - works!
