How can I show or hide html elements based on a modx user's group membership?
For example I have an edit button and a view button on a given page, I want users who have permission to access the edit resource to be able to see the button while it should be hidden from all other users.
UPDATE I wound up writing a little thing to get the job done:
call snippet getButton
[[!getButton? &rid =`20` &btn=`ButtonEditTpl` &qs=`contract_id=[[!+contract_id]]`]]
The snippet
<?php
$btn = isset($btn) ? $btn : null;
$qs = isset($qs) ? $qs : 'this=that';
$rid = isset($rid) ? $rid : 0;
$output = '';
$resource = $modx->getObject('modResource',$rid);
if($resource){
$url = $modx->makeUrl($rid, '', $qs);
$output = $modx->getChunk($btn,array('url' => $url));
}
return $output;
?>
Just use Personalize

[[!Personalize?
&yesChunk=`@CODE:<p>Place for your button</p>`
&noChunk=`@CODE:<p>You are not logged in</p>`
&allowedGroups=`MembersOnly,Managers`
]]
