Conditional statement question

[VodkaFish]

In my header I have something I want displayed for everyone except one usergroup. What would be the code needed within the header template to wrap that stuff in a "if not this userid then display" sort of statement?

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != X"> Show Stuff here r</if>

Change x to the group you dont want it to see :)

Thank you, I assumed that was the syntax; but wasn't positive.

my guess would have been:
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] != X"> Show Stuff here r</if>

But I like the assurance :)

btw - you don't need the single quotes around the usergroupid?

also is this proper?:

<if condition="($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != X) or ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != Y)"> Show Stuff here r</if>"> Show Stuff here r</if>

No, you NEVER use single quotes inside conditionals

[VodkaFish]

Wow, you got me before my edit. Thanks for the reply again :)

I forgot I will be using this as a secondary usergroup. membergroupids is the variable, correct? But in an array. Is it possible to use a single conditional to do this? An "if not member of X"?

[Zachery]

youll need to use !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, X) instead of what i have above

I'm confused. Here are some examples from the vb manual and they are using single quotes. :confused:

I attempted to use this:

<if condition="!is_member_of($bbuserinfo[membergroupids], 12)">

However, whatever is in-between the <if></if> still shows for members in the secondary group id of 12. I then took away the other secondary usergroups that the member belonged to as a test, but it still shows.

No, as i posted it


!is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 12)

Is what you are going to use.

Slightly off topic... how would you do it if you wanted secondary uergroups to see it only?

say usergroup from 10-15. I HAVE NO idea how to do this. been seraching and this is the closest I have found.

It works the same way, is_member_of checks all usergroups, not just primary.

On forum home is there a way to target each user in that array?
What I want to do is to put a pic for each user that has something in their profile field.

mild bump if anyone else knows.
