RE:Show userrole

Hello Wessel,

There is only a built-in macro which determines if the selected user is in a chosen role.

Example using K# syntax:

{%if (CurrentUser.IsInRole("Editors")) {return true;} else {return false;} %}

If you need to have a method which will return all roles, you will need to create a custom macro (Developer's Guide - Registering custom macro methods) and use the following method for getting all roles:

CMS.SiteProvider.UserInfo.GetRoleIdList(Boolean includeGlobal, Boolean includeMembership, String siteName) - Gets all roles for current user

includeGlobal (Boolean) - If true, global roles are included
includeMembership (Boolean) - If true, membership roles are included
siteName (String) - Current site name

Best regards,
Filip Ligac

RE:Show userrole

The solution my colleague provided is probably the best for most scenarios.

As you specified it more and you want to use a repeater, please try the following:

Repeater with Custom Query webpart:

Query:

SELECT CMS_Role.RoleDisplayName
FROM CMS_Role
INNER JOIN CMS_UserRole ON CMS_Role.RoleID = CMS_UserRole.RoleID
WHERE ##WHERE##

Transformation:

SELECT CMS_Role.RoleDisplayName
FROM CMS_Role
INNER JOIN CMS_UserRole ON CMS_Role.RoleID = CMS_UserRole.RoleID
WHERE ##WHERE##

WHERE condition:

CMS_UserRole.UserID = {%CurrentUser.UserID%}
