This code may be of help:

<?php
    $u = new User();
    if ($u->isRegistered()) {
        $userName = $u->getUserName();
        echo t('Currently logged in as <b>%s</b>.', $userName)?> <a href="<?php echo $this->url('/login', 'logout')?>"><?php echo t('Sign Out')?></a>
    <?php } else { ?>
        <a href="<?=$this->url('/login')?>"><?php echo t('Sign In')?></a>
    <?php } ?>

It's based on what I discovered in the developer docs so code from the community. I'm using this code and it works nicely.

if i install the addon will it change anything i currently have on the site?

no it will not, if you want to hide something only for people who are logged in, click on the block then custom templates

it worked well on the log in box, but i tried to use it on a box with 2 a href links and they still show. i set the box the same way as i did the other one. im not sure why it works in one case and not the other. do you know?

I put the code in the default.php file of the theme.

Also, I might add that this forum area is for PHP Developers. Advice on using existing blocks should go in the "Editing with concrete5" I think. If you don't understand the basics of PHP then you are an editor.
