I found that it is possible to programaticaly put login/logout buttons in header (in Silverstripe CMS) with this code.

<% if CurrentMember %>
<a href="/Security/login">Log in</a>
<% else %>
<a href="/Security/logout">Log out</a>
<% end_if %>

If I put "/Security/login" and "/Security/logout" in page name then it works, But if I put it in page template Page.ss then I cant see it (after sitename/dev/build and sitename/?flish=all)

Can someone help with Silverstripe 3.1 and "simple" template. Or give me any other clue.

that should work - if it's in the right place in the template.
make sure it's in the Page.ss file, not 'Layout/Page.ss' file so that it appears on each page

then ?flush=all to refresh the cache.
