Quickly administering posts in theme

Hello list! :-)

It's been a while since I targeted this list as a source of help, but  
at the moment I'm completely lost..

I'll give you some background information as what I would like to do:
I think I made the ultimate Blogging theme for drupal - as you  
probably all think offcourse ;-) - but now, I want to have links/
buttons to immediatly administer the viewed post. So I can delete/
unpublish/edit it.

Offcourse those links/buttons should only be available when the user  
has the right permissions. Otherwise, they should be hidden or not  
displayed at all.

Now, the questions are;
- How should I implement that inside my theme? Or should I write a  
special module for that, bundled with the theme?
- Perhaps there is a theme which does this already and I'm not aware of?

The approach taken should be as clean as possible.

Hope you guys can help me out!


Yours sincerely,



Stefan Nagtegaal

IIRC, the Zen theme does something similar with editing blocks -- maybe
you could borrow something from there?

Cheers,

Bill
