I am using a staging site to upgrade a corporate intranet from 4.6 to 4.7.3. Everything is going relatively well except that I can't get the login block to show up ANYWHERE! I have enabled, disabled, moved it from right to left and back, changed it's weight, everything I can think of. But the darn thing won't show.

Anyone have any clues as to where to look so I can solve this issue?

Thanks

The very first thing to do is a View Source, to see whether or not the login block appears in the HTML source. If it does, then it's almost certainly a CSS or similar problem. Chances are that it isn't, and you'll have to dig deeper, but the view source is so easy that it's worth doing as the first step.

Didn't try that one yet, good call but it's not there. Thanks for the response! Looks like I will be digging deeper.

See what happens by typing http://domain.com/?q=login in your address bar.

I get a Drupal 'page not found' error. Is that because I have clean URLs enabled? I can get to the login page at ../user/login. But no login block.

Thanks!

Download and install the logintoboggan module. Its more flexible than the standard log in.

That is quite a module. I never thought of using it before (don't know why). Thanks for your help!

Not sure why but the module shown above does not show on my front page.

I tried it because the standard drupal login module does not show either for some reason.

I disabled all modules and still no login block will show.
I have tried using the standard drupal front page and using the front_page module as well.

Any ideas ??

Is there something that generally causes this issue ??

Its not showing in the source either.

Douh !!

It appears that you can't see the block after login.
Could have sworn that it stayed visible (after login) but I guess that was wrong.
