[SOLVED] user:"#Me" within PHP Code field

1 year 7 months ago - 1 year 7 months ago #330500 by galanopd
[SOLVED] user:"#Me" within PHP Code field was created by galanopd
I have the following
if ( $user->get( "user" ) == "#Me" ) { ... }else{}
added in a few
switch() { case
in a PHP Code field but I can't make it work.
How can I state it correctly other than "#Me"? I have even tried
[cb:userdata field user:"#Me"]
but no luck

EDIT: Also tried
[cbsubs:if user="#Me"]my code[/cbsubs:if]
(Content Plugins->Enable)

It can only be used in substitutions where noted in our substitution tutorial below.

www.joomlapolis.com/documentation/279-community-builder/tutorials/18353-using-substitutions-throughout-cb

it's also #me not #Me. It's important to follow the syntax we provided. None of the syntax's you're using are valid. Some examples of valid syntax as follows.

[cb:userdata field="user_id" user="#me" /]
[cb:userfield field="username" user="#me" /]
[cb:if user="#me" username="demo"]The viewing user has a Username of "demo".[/cb:if]

Within a Code field I have the following
if([cb:userdata field="user_id" user="#me" /]) {
echo "Show ONLY when I view MY profile";
Some code here....
print_r(something);
} else {
echo "Show something else when I view other's profile";
Some other code here...
print_r(something else);
}

If I use user="displayed" or user="displayedOrMe" it shows the "else" even on my profile.

So the question is, how can I make only this part of the code not to be visible to user="displayed" but only to user="#me" ?

Substitutions need to always be treated like strings so be sure they're surrounded in single quotes then cast them if necessary to whatever type you need. Code field has access to $user which is the user object of the user being displayed. You can use the below API to check if the displayed user is the viewing user.

API
$displayedUserId= $user->getInt( 'id', 0 );
$viewingUserId = \CBLib\Application\Application::MyUser()->getUserId();

Substitutions
$displayedUserId= $user->getInt( 'id', 0 );
$viewingUserId = (int) '[cb:userdata field="user_id" user="#me" /]';

With that you can compare the two however you like and use them in further API calls as needed.
