My session doesnot work properly

Question

I have the problem, that the following if condition always goes into the first if condition, never into the elseif condition.

This is my code below :

if ($this->session->has_userdata('role') == 1) {
    $this->session->set_flashdata('success', 'Welcome ' . $userInfo[0]->name . '!');
    redirect('adashboard');    
} elseif ($this->session->has_userdata('role') == 2) {
    $this->session->set_flashdata('success', 'Welcome ' . $userInfo[0]->name . '!');
    redirect('udashboard');
}

Can you tell my why?

Hope this will help you :

Use userdata instead of has_userdata : userdata returns Value of the specified item key

if ($this->session->userdata('role') == 1) 
{
    $this->session->set_flashdata('success', 'Welcome ' . $userInfo[0]->name . '!');
    redirect('adashboard');    
} 
elseif ($this->session->userdata('role') == 2) 
{
    $this->session->set_flashdata('success', 'Welcome ' . $userInfo[0]->name . '!');
    redirect('udashboard');
}
