Description Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2010-06-09 04:03:20 EDT 
While organizing a demo camp I got complains from people that they couldn't find an "EDIT" button on the wiki. Usually, they also failed to recognize the tiny little "log in" link.

We need to make it more intuitive that people need to register/login to edit.

I wonder if we can show the "EDIT" tab even when not logged it and have that do a log-in when clicked.

I agree, and sometimes I struggle to find the log in link myself.  Matt, can we add an 'Edit this page' tab for the anonymous users (which redirects to the login link) ?

Ok, I've updated the skin so that if you are not logged in it will display the edit tab, but clicking it will take you to the login page.

Works under FF,Chrome, Opera and IE.

Works like a charm. Thanks Matt!
