[support] Trouble with a theme

[Christopher M. Jones]

Prothero, did you get an answer to this? I don't see one.

solarsentinel is providing a theme function to generate the block in 
question. The theme function, as you surmised, simply doesn't provide 
the register link.

You could simply add a line like this:

$form['register_link'] = array(
   '#value' => l(t('Register'), 'user/register'),
   '#prefix' => '<div id="sl_register">',
   '#suffix' => '</div>',
   );

If possible, I'd also modify the existing code to conform to Drupal best 
practices; i.e., using l() instead of hard coding the anchor markup, and 
wrapping the link text in t().
