Conditionally hide subscription form if already subscribed?

Kayla Johnson asked on September 17, 2018 16:42

We are adding a few content subscription widgets to our client's site. However, it is very confusing if the user is already subscribed, they still see the option to subscribe to it. Is there a way to change the Visibility of the widget to not show based on if the user is already subscribed to that one?

It should be something like this:

{%CurrentUser.ReferringObjects.Subscriptions.Filter(SubscriptionGatewayID == 1 && SubscriptionTemplateID == 123).Count|(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}

Basically you need to check if a record exists for given user and a given template (may be gateway if you have your custom one) in Notification_Subscription table. So if the count greater than 0 - hide the widget/form. I really dont know your setup I am just try to give you an idea :)

Is the user authenticated or is it public user?

It's for a logged in user.

I think this solution worked. It's hard to tell. I'm testing with a non-admin user and it seems to work okay. But the subscribe form doesn't hide/show immediately after subscribing/unsubscribing, unless I clear the cache.
