[hide] text except to specific group[/hide]

[coventricity]

I had a hack for an old version of vBulletin. It was in the custom BB code area in admincp
It hid the text between the 2 tags and does not work any longer.
This is the code:

[HIDE]
------------------------------
<br>
<b>
{param}
</b><br>
------------------------------
[/HIDE]

I have tried this as well, with the {option} enabled.

[HIDE={"is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 36)"}]
------------------------------
<br>
<b>
{param}
</b><br>
------------------------------
[/HIDE]

No errors or results. could someone give me a little direction regarding this coding challenge?

Thanks,

Coven
