Is it possible to find out if the user has ever logged in itself?

I think you might be able to use the last logged in timestamp. I suppose that will be blank if the user hasn't logged in yet.

But the timestamp isn't available in all versions of Exponential, as far as I've understood.

Thanks, do I need to use a SQL query or is there any way how to get it via the standard template mechanism?

It's not available in the eZ version I'm running, so I'm not completely sure. But you might try {$user.last_visit_timestamp}, and change the 'user' to current_user/node or whatever you're getting it from.
