Group Permissions in index.template.php

[russ]

Ive re-dun most of my index.template.php file to allow the design to fit in nicely with the rest of my site but theres one thing i havent managed to do so far... there are various ads around the place in index.template.php and i would like to "hide" these ads if say a members changes group - ive tried:

Code Select Expand


if (in_array(55, $user_info['groups']))
{
}
else
{
include("ads.php");
}


but i got errors. is this not the correct way of doing it? is there a better way suggestions appreciated!

[russ]

i guess i could call it in from another file using iframes but i hate them....

update: ive tried it again but i still get errors, i guess ive got the wrong variables in the index.template.php file

Use $GLOBALS['user_info'] instead of $user_info.

so it shuld look liek this?

Code Select Expand

if (in_array(55, $GLOBALS['user_info']['groups']))
{
}
else
{
include("ads.php");
}

That would show the ads to anyone NOT in group #55, yes.
