missing login prompt and news count

When we upgraded our version of storyteller to the latest version, the login bar no longer appears, and I can't figure out how to get it back. So I'm just wondering if that was supposed to happen with the newest version? Also we're using the bbwrapper for user authentication, does the storyteller registration system work with this, or should I point registration to the vbulliten registration system?

Lastly the news count on the front page is 56, even though it's configured to do 7 as the max news in the admin section. Any clue why that's happening?

It could be that the guy that was working on the site before me messed up a lot of stuff and it's not something you would know what to do to fix, but we don't want to do a clean install and have to redo all the templates so I'm looking for any alternative solutions possible.

Thanks again for the help.

Yes, there was a small change in 1.8. You need to add
$insert[login_header]

in the HTML part of your site_header template.

The bbwrapper is also adding the user to the vBulletin database.

You need to set "Sort main news by day?" to No
