I’m having trouble when trying to either present a register link or the username of the logged in user depending on if the user is logged in or not. I’m using If that I guess has replaces evolution’s phx but I’m getting problems with caching, the logged in user in one browser shows up in another browser and when I log out the username stays there. How should I do this?

[[ !Login]]

[[!If?
   &subject=`[[!+modx.user.id]]`
   &operator=`null`
   &then=`<a href="[[~7]]">Registrera konto</a>`
   &else=`<p>[[!+modx.user.username]]</p>`
]]

Try using `empty` instead of `null`.

Also, make sure you are not using the same browser session you are using for the manager. The user id will always be ’0’ if no one is logged in. Also note, the manager user session is inherited by the front-end contexts if you are not logged into the front-end explicitly in the same browser session.

Other option:

[[!+modx.user.id:eq=`0`:then=`<a href="[[~7]]">Registrera konto</a>`:else=`<p>[[!+modx.user.username]]</p>`]]

(untested)
