[Guide] Template Conditionals

[Mikey]

How would I display something only if the user is online?

something like

<xen:if is="{$visitor.online} == 1">Code for online users</xen:if>

?

Not if the person who is viewing it is online, but if the user is online?

If you mean "online" as in "logged in", then you can use

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id}">Code</xen:if>

Thanks, but I kinda mean differently.

Sort of how the banners for online and offline work in that mod over at xenforo.com, where they show if a user is online or offline with ribbons?

Ah, well, I can tell you if you have a test installation of the plugin for me

What is wrong with this?

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $user, x} AND {$user.is_admin} OR {$user.is_moderator}">

This went right over my head, but the code I copy pasted works for me.

Try this, obviously replacing x with the group id#

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $user, x} AND ({$user.is_admin} OR {$user.is_moderator})">

for reference...

page_container template:

<p class="importantMessage">
controllerName: {$controllerName}, controllerAction: {$controllerAction} and viewName: {$viewName}.
</p>

Would I utilize this for giving specific usergroups access?

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $user, x}

The possibilities with this guide could be great... is there a way for me to use conditionals to show different usergroups different backgrounds?

 

[Floris]

The style.php or css.php is loaded in the header somwhere,
you can wrap this around a conditional and load a different style id, I believe.

This would be a great how to guide to add some new content to your site

<xen:if is="{$user.customFields.country}">
If the field has data this text will be shown
</xen:if>

<xen:if is="{$user.customFields.country} == 'United Kingdom'">
If the field contains 'United Kingdom' this text will be shown
</xen:if>
