Show Hide Menus MVC jQuery

Question

Can anyone help me out discovering the correct way to show/hide menu items according to AbpUserRoles?

I am simply adding two menu items that should only be available to role=admin.

My code causes the Admin menu to show when it should not:

Code:

var adminMenu = context.Menu.GetAdministration();
adminMenu.Items.Add(new ApplicationMenuItem("Admin.Sites", "Sites", "/Sites"));
adminMenu.Items.Add(new ApplicationMenuItem("Admin.UserSites", "User Sites", "/UserSites"));

ok, so the way I ended up doing this was by getting hold of the CurrentUser as follows:

public class YourProjectMenuContributor : IMenuContributor
{
    private async Task ConfigureMainMenuAsync(MenuConfigurationContext context)
    {

        if (context.GetHttpContext().User.IsInRole("admin"))
        {
            //....configure as required...
        }
    }
}
