Hi all,

I’ wondering how you handle your login/logout form for your website. A  
login/logout form is something you sometimes place on almost all  
pages. How do you handle this? Do you make a shared partial or is  
there an other and better way to show this on all your pages?

Thanks  
Stijn

If you really want it on all of your pages, you can just render it  
from within your layout.
