Don't display to roles

Hi there,
I know there's an option of webparts to display to roles that are separated by semicolons. Is there an easy way of NOT displaying the web part to certain roles?

We have a lot of roles, and to have to set all web parts to show to all the roles except one specific one is a pain, and would be easier to list out the one or two roles the web part shouldn't show up for. Thanks for any help

This is what comes out.

It looks like I am loosing it at the (equals) part.


Member	kphibbs-ibank - 5/8/2013 1:31:05 PM RE:Don't display to roles This is what I used to get it to not display if the user is a member of a role: {% !CurrentUser.IsInRole("<Name-Of-Role>") %} The exclamation point being the "Not True" part if it. Not sure if that helps, but there you go.


Kentico Support	kentico_jurajo - 5/9/2013 10:21:45 PM RE:Don't display to roles Hi, the true/false value and equals parameters are available to the old simple macros. Once you are using a method in the macro - it is more K# and you need to use the K# syntax to evaluate the expression, e.g. in an IF statement. Best regards, Juraj Ondrus
