Method to check the permissions/roles of a user

Hi

I'm creating a new module in my mojoPortal implementation, but I would like to know if there's a method, or something that returns me to which roles a user belongs to. In this way I can display certain information on the module depending on the permissions.

Hope that makes sense.

 

Thanks

Re: Method to check the permissions/roles of a user

Hi David,

You should study the code of existing features and you will see many places where we check roles and other common tasks.

For the current user you can use

if(WebUser.IsInRoles(semicolonseparatedlistofallowedroles))
{ // do something}

Hope it helps,

Joe
