Thanks, Patrick. You are correct that the sidebar does not appear when
not logged in (I jumped the gun on that). 

I want to implement the logout link that you suggest, but I don't know
how. I can link to a PAGE, but how do I link to an ACTION?

I tried the obvious:
[[?action=logout/log out]]

... but that didn't work. It doesn't even show up on the page.
