On the other hand the majority of website are using the link with the text "Log in", instead of an icon. If the point is to be explicit, than text is the solution. I've used "Log-in" since that's our current translation and because the "-" the words seem connected.
If the Log-in is a button, than putting it between Search and Drawer is possible. If it's text, the text will separate the buttons and it looks bad. Having it on the first position encourages users to Log-in.
Another point to be checked: if users install extensions that add UIX in the top menu then the location of the Log in icon/text may move and users may be disturbed to not find it in the same location as before (this is why I liked the rightmost location next to the drawer).
Another related point: once logged in I would expect to see my avatar instead of the login icon/text and it makes sense to have it just left of the Drawer menu. As on xwiki.org for example. Thanks -Vincent

BTW what about log out?

I've voluntary broken the consistency to highlight this action. It's the most important one if you are not logged.
Thanks

I’d also prefer an icon and not text if we can find an icon that’s clear enough. The other icons don’t have text so it would be nicer to continue with this for consistency.
Thanks -Vincent

Hi,
I have 2 points:
1) We need to have this configurable somehow but that should be easy since both buttons (inside and outside of the drawer are UIX). I still think there are use cases for having it inside the drawer. 2) I’d put the Login on the right, just left of the Hamburger icon (ie right of the search).
Thanks -Vincent

Hi Devs,
Currently, the login button is inside the drawer menu, which is quite standard on mobile phones. However, on desktop, a lot of people are confused and cannot find how to login/register.
I propose to add a login button in the top menu, like this: https://jira.xwiki.org/secure/attachment/34731/Proposition3.png
Related JIRA: https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-14881#
That could be nice to have it in addition to the current links, for 9.11.
Note: we also need to put a "register" link in the login form, so that people can register from there without the need to also add a register button on the top menu (that would be too much IMO).
WDYT?
