josh48202 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Hi everyone im trying to get links and other certain information to be displayed based on their group level. i added a row to the database called group_id every member is either a 1 or a 2. i also added these other bits of code as followed... in catelog/login.php i added group_id to $check_customer_query $check_customer_query = tep_db_query("select customers_id, group_id, customers_firstname, customers_password, customers_email_address, customers_default_address_id from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " where customers_email_address = '" . tep_db_input($email_address) . "'"); i also added these as well to login.php $group_id = $check_customer['group_id']; tep_session_register('group_id'); everything from there works just fine. i added this code just for practice to get it working in the catelog/includes/column_right.php if (tep_session_is_registered('group_id')) require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'loginbox.php'); Now this works and shows up if the member is registered and logged in. Now my question is.... How do i get this loginbox.php to only show up if the group_id is equal to 2?

Something like this: <?php if ( ( tep_session_is_registered('group_id') ) && ( (int)$group_id == 2 ) ) require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'loginbox.php'); ?> If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

burt Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 echo the $group_id to determine the value, as it is possible it is not picking up the value you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like your session is getting lost. All I know is the code I posted works, provided the session isn't lost. In my test I set the value for $group_id on one page, and when I went to another and echo'ed it, it was exactly as I set it on the first page.
