Link username to my account page in logged in block

You can easily do this using a theming function such as

function your-theme_lt_loggedinblock(){
  global $user;
  return l(check_plain($user->name), 'user/' . $user->uid) .' | ' . l(t('Log out'), 'logout');
}

Note that the code given above is untested. It should work, though, after you add it to your theme's template.php file & rebuild the theme registry (which you can do by visiting admin/build/themes).

However, I would suggest you consider that this change might make it more difficult for people to click logout, since they might click their username by mistake.

(Unrelated: was my reply the first 4th of July post in Drupal's timezone? I'll have to check...)

Thanks EvanDonovan..

I agree, however, that this is one of the several mods I have to use every time I use logintoboggan - from a usability standpoint, it's what users expect, and I would love to not have to add this custom to every site I do :-)

Thank you for a wonderful module.

i've decided to implement this in 7.x. for 6.x and below, please use the approach outlined in #1.

http://drupal.org/node/610936

no need for check_plain, its already done by default in l(), http://drupal.org/node/28984
however, it should be more like this

function THEMENAME_lt_loggedinblock() {
        global $user ;
        return theme('username', $user) .' | ' . l(t('Log out'), 'logout') ;
}

same result..

Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

what a shame you don't want to implement this for drupal v6. I use a subtheme which cannot be subthemed (an acquia fusion subtheme) so adding code to the template is not so straightforward, have to remove parent template and write one for subtheme or modify parent theme template.
but glad it will be in v 7, good work.

@tallsimon, im in the same situation now, i dont want to hack the theme, so..

/**
 * Implementation of hook_theme_registry_alter().
 */
function sitemodule_theme_registry_alter(&$theme_registry) {
        if ( ! empty($theme_registry['lt_loggedinblock'])) {
                $theme_registry['lt_loggedinblock']['function'] = 'sitemodule_theme_lt_loggedinblock';
        }
}

function sitemodule_theme_lt_loggedinblock() {
        global $user ;
        return theme('username', $user) . ' | ' . l(t('Log out'), 'logout') ;
}
