{if logged_in} not working?

Question

My frontend has a sidebar that is embedded by most of my frontend's pages. In that sidebar template, there is a conditional that goes something like this:

{if logged_in}
   ...
   ...
   {embed="foo/bar"}
   ...
   ...
{/if}
{if logged_out}
   ...
   ...
   ...
{/if}

(The ... indicates plain HTML stuff.)

Everything works as expected -- except on my /sign-up/ page. On the /sign-up/ page, it's as if I am logged in. I see the markup inside the {if logged_in} conditional and the results of the embed. I do not see the markup inside the {if logged_out}.

Other parts of the page has similar logged_in and logged_out checks -- and they all seem to be working fine. The problem is isolated to just the sidebar. This is very strange to me. Any ideas what might cause this problem?

UPDATE 1:

Note the {embed="foo/bar"}. It contains a SafeCracker Registration form. Here's the opening tag:

{exp:channel:form
    channel="profiles"
    class="form-horizontal apply-nolazy"
    datepicker="no"
    dynamic_title="[email]"
    error_handling="inline"
    id="registration-form"
    include_assets="no"
    include_jquery="no"
    loggin_member="no"
    register_member="yes"
    return="/sign-up/verify-email-address/"
    rules:birthdate="required"
    rules:gender="required"
    rules:profile_name="required|max_length[25]"
    rules:user_provided_address="required"
    secure_action="yes"
    secure_return="yes"
}

When I comment out the embed, the {if logged_in} and {if logged_out} checks in the template that embeds the SafeCracker Registration form are respected. It's as if the embedding of the form causes the conditionals to misbehave. Is this somehow a problem with SafeCracker Registration Form?

Answer 1

Have you tried an alternate combo? Rather than running 2 conditionals to check if someone is either logged in or out, trying:

{if logged_in}
   ...
   ...
   {embed="foo/bar"}
   ...
   ...
{if:else}
   ...
   ...
   ...
{/if}

Answer 2

You need to set the dynamic feature for this to no so that it isn't parsing any other information beyond this form through the URL. You can read about it here:

Answer 3

use tag disable="member_data" in channel form.

{exp:channel:form
    channel="profiles"
    class="form-horizontal apply-nolazy"
    datepicker="no"
    dynamic_title="[email]"
    error_handling="inline"
    id="registration-form"
    include_assets="no"
    include_jquery="no"
    loggin_member="no"
    register_member="yes"
    return="/sign-up/verify-email-address/"
    rules:birthdate="required"
    rules:gender="required"
    rules:profile_name="required|max_length[25]"
    rules:user_provided_address="required"
    secure_action="yes"
    secure_return="yes"
    disable="member_data"
}

i think that works for you

Answer 4

There are many options. Here's a fun one.

Install Mo' Variables (for free) and do this. Also, make sure template caching for the embed is turned off.

{if logged_in_member_id != ""}
   ...
   ...
   {embed="foo/bar"}
   ...
   ...
{/if}
{if logged_in_member_id == ""}
   ...
   ...
   ...
{/if}
