How to put a custom login menu in a page? I'm totally new to Drupal and I'm using v.6.xx.

I've managed to remove the "login" menu via Admin panel.

Now I'd like to create a custom "page" (= no menu) with a customized login form, and once authentified, show a menu with some options and the "disconnect" option.

What is the best way to achieve this?

Thank you very much
ok your question has several parts:

(The standard login form can be accessed through a block, or going to the /user path while logged out)

Custom login form:

Custom 'menu':


Create a block that has a link to /logout, going to that path will automatically log out your users. Make sure that the block visibility is only for authenticated users.
Add any other links or options you want.
