RE:My Account button when user is authenticated

Create ascx page based on this: http://devnet.kentico.com/docs/devguide/index.html?developing_web_parts.htm

Add your button, setup visible to false, and add this in code behind:

        if (CMS.CMSHelper.CMSContext.CurrentUser.IsAuthenticated())
        {
            you button.Visible = true;
        }

There is another quick way.... :)

Add Static HTML WebPart... inside add you link and in WebPart properties setup Display to roles, to display it to roles you want...

Hope this gives you idea...


Kentico Consulting	kentico_borisp - 4/19/2011 12:11:40 PM RE:My Account button when user is authenticated Hello, You can also use a macro on the Visible property of your web part: {%currentuser.username\|(equals)public\|(truevalue)false\|(falsevalue)true%} This macro returns true, if the user name isn't public, otherwise it returns false. Best regards, Boris Pocatko
