is_user_logged_in function in a sidebar not working

you warped your code inside

 if ( ! dynamic_sidebar( 'primary-widget-area' ) ) : ?>
     // code here

 ?php endif;

witch means that if you have any widgets on that sidebar the the code within the IF will not work. its basically using the code inside the if to use as default widgets and once you have a widget on the sidebar it ignores it.

so if your sidebar does have any widgets you need to run your is_user_logged_in function
inside a PHP capable widget.

hope this helps
