admin login block

There is a block on the front page of my site, if you are an admin, that has a logout link on it. How can I hide this block? There are only two admins and we both know to logout form the admin panel itself.

thanks.

sorry if this has been answered before...I couldn't find it in my searches.

mmm your question is a bit confusing...
but let me answer this the easy way...

do you realy mean the block or the logout link?

yea...i guess it can be confusing the way i described it...

on my website, i have the userinfo block on top, then immediately under it, i have a block that says

admin:logout, i'm trying to locate this block so i can disable it.

It only exists when you are logged on as an admin.

you can see a screenie of what i'm talking about at www.kaoskings.com/img/img.jpg

well look in your blocks area in admin...
as it looks its beneath the members login .....so look for that and probably the one below that one is the admin block...

that's what i did the first time...but the block that is listed right below that is the block under what i'm trying to get rid of. That block also only shows up if you're logged in as an admin.

That's is the Login block, you can just disable that in your Blocks admin area

ok...it is the login block. Thanks for that...the problem is i have it set to anonymous only, but it still shows up for admins...how do i hide it from admins? It really disrupts the flow of the right column. But I still need it for people that aren't logged in, unless userinfo will give that to me...i'll have to try that.

ok...hiding the block does hide it for everyone. Userinfo does not allow anyone to login. Setting the login block to anonymous only still shows it for administrators. How do I hide that block from administrators, but still show it for Anonymous users?

The user system is completely seperate from the admins. There's no permission to not show for admins. So really I suggest logging in as a user. That's the easy way
