This is probably a noob question. I recently setup a new site. I was messing around with the login config section. I told the login screen to hide until the user clicked to show it, I forget what exactly it said. The setting is in the admin menu under Blocks -Login - Config, something like that.

I logged out to test the change and apparently I forgot to set something up cuz there is no where to click to get to the login. Currently there is no way I can find to login. So I cant change it back.

Is there away to get to the login or to change that setting back?

- Doh just saw how long ago this was posted, hope it helps someone in the future :s

I had the same/similar problem, basically I messed up and hid the Login block from anon Users.

I was only able to fix it by manipulating the database directly.
Jump into the Drupal Database, via your MySQL extension or MyPHP admin etc.

Locate the Blocks table.

Find the latest Entry for 'user' under the module column and begin to edit the row

set these values to the following and leaving the other values unchanged;

delta - 0
status - 1
weight - 0
region - left
visibility - 1
pages - null (blank the field out)

commit those changes to the DB.

Now when you refresh your website your login panel should be on the left like in the default Drupal configuration.

hope that fixes the problem for you.

i get the same issue on multisite D6 install : some website works ,some not...manipulating db seem not to do the trick..all forms are not displayed on website where login page is empty(no form)...so i think it is about block table issue
