Conditionally displaying content on the landing page depending on access rights

[Alban Schmid]

Dear fellow xwiki users,

 

I'd like to display some portions of the landing page as well as some items in the menu conditionally, i.e. only for some specific groups.

 

I've found following code snippet on the 'Quick Links' menu:

 

#if ($xwiki.hasAdminRights())

Content to display conditionally

#end

 

Is there a way to adapt this so as to restrict display not to AdminRights, but e.g. to 'EditRights' or group rights?

 

I'd like to do something like this (pseudo-code)

 

#if ($xwiki.isMemberOfAdmin() or $xwiki.isMemberOfInternalUsers())

Content to display conditionally

#end

 

Thanks for your answer.

 

Regards,

You have $xwiki.hasAccessLevel("right") for current page. See
http://tinyurl.com/18r.

For example for edit right it's : $xwiki.hasAccessLevel("edit")

In general when you search for methods in api, look at
