Any conditionals experts out there? I need assistance...

[Sal Collaziano]

I'd like to display information at the very top of my forum - different for guests, registered members and supporting members. Am I on the right track with the code I've typed below? It doesn't work for me so would somebody mind helping me out?

Thanks in advance...

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == 1">
<p>guest</p>
<else />
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == 2">
<p>registered</p>
<else />
<p>not guest or registered</p>
</if>
</if>
Guests get "not guest or registered".
I'm in my own usergroup and I get "guest".

Any help would be appreciated...

Try


<if condition="$show[registerbutton]">
<p>Guest</p>
<else />
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 2">
<p>registered</p>
<else />
<p>not guest or registered</p>
</if>
</if>


Note: This only works in the navbar. Elsewhere it may have to be tweaked.

Thank you.. Well.. I'm actually trying to get this information to display at the very top of the page.. At the very beginning of the header.. Would anyone happen to know the trick for that?

Thank you...

Guests get "not guest or registered".
I'm in my own usergroup and I get "guest".

You appear to be using "userid" in your tests instead of "usergroupid".

<if condition="!$bbuserinfo['userid']">
<p>guest</p>
<else />
<p>registered</p>
</if>

Thank you.. Is it supposed to say "userid" with the actual usergroup "number" in there somewhere? Like 'userid=1'?

[Paul M]

For different user groups, the easiest method is ;

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 1">
<p>Group 1 message (Guests)</p>
</if>

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 2">
<p>Group 2 message (Normal registered users)</p>
</if>

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 9">
<p>Group 9 message</p>
</if>

[Sal Collaziano]

Thank you.. That's exactly what I needed. :)

Okay. Just one more request... If I want to give the same message to several usergroups, would it be done like this?:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 1,2,3,4,5">
<p>Message here</p>
</if>

Nope, would be like this:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo[usergroupid], array(1,2,3,4,5))">
<p>Message here</p>
</if>

I couldn't get this one to work for some reason... Of course, I replaced the array numbers with my own usergroups...

Hmm, should work since i just tested it on my own forum before replying.

[Sal Collaziano]

It must be me then. I'll try again as soon as I can.. I'm in "swamped" mode right now...
