Description Jay Turner 2001-05-14 12:10:55 UTC
Description of Problem:
Now that the Global Header deployment has been postponed, there is no
obvious way to log into the store, and yet you have to be logged in to do
just about anything.

How Reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Pull up http://bmantest.meridian.redhat.com/cgi-bin/store 
2. Confirm that you are not logged into the site
3. Click on Order History in the left-hand column
4. Should get message that you have to be logged into the site in order
   to view order history

Actual Results:
From this page, there is no link to log in.

Expected Results:
Should provide a link to the user to log into the site.

Additional Information:
This is really just one of many cases where it is not going to be obvious
where to log into the site, so this really needs to be a global fix, rather
than just a fix for this page.

Login link added on main page if not logged in. Logout link added if logged in.
Order history and account prefs pages bounce you to login if you are not logged in.

On bmantest.meridian/cgi-bin/store what I am seeing is that the Order History
and Account Prefs links don't show unless you are logged into the site. 
Otherwise you just get the login link.

Lots of logging in and logging out points on the site now.  Closing out this issue.
