Question

I’m using ZfcUser to Authenticate. Currently trying to tell if a user is logged in the layout.phtml file using …

<? if ($this->zfcUserAuthentication()->hasIdentity()): ?>

I’m guessing I need to add some path to the application config file?

You can use the view helper supplied with ZfcUser (i.e. the one that you referenced in your question, mtbikemike). Use dynamic injection to load the view helper by adding the following into the configuration of your module (module.config.php). You may need to integrate the code below with any existing contents of module.config.php of course.

return array(
    'di' => array(
        'instance' => array(
            'Zend\View\HelperLoader' => array(
                'parameters' => array(
                'map' => array(
                        'zfcUserIdentity' => 'ZfcUser\View\Helper\ZfcUserIdentity',
                        'zfcUserLoginWidget' => 'ZfcUser\View\Helper\ZfcUserLoginWidget',
                    ),
                ),
            ),
        ),
    ),
);

That loads two view helpers, so if you only want the zfcUserIdentity helper then you can always remove the reference to zfcUserLoginWidget.
