PatrickRQ Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Hi IPS, As per title, can you add setting to define what groups of users can see specific widget? Now we can set only visibility per device type. It is useful to display different content to e.g. guests, regular members and premium users. ~ Thanks Randy Calvert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrodude Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 (edited) It would be nice to have such thing in the core. There's an available app can do that.  Edited May 24 by Afrodude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel F Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 You can also use the block feature to set the visibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is another solution. if you have Pages, you can create any custom block/widget and set permissions to whom can view the block.

PatrickRQ Posted May 24 Author Share Posted May 24 I do not mean Pages block. I mean all existing widgets we have shipped by IPS as ready to use. 1 hour ago, Daniel F said: You can also use the block feature to set the visibility What do you mean?

I know, but if you have Pages, you can recreate all IPS widgets using it Topics feed, Posts feed, and Poll etc... and add the group permissions you need.

Thanks for suggestion. I am actually aware of such possibility, however I believe it should be available by default. I always missed it.

Well, it's a good solution because it might take a very long time for IPS to look into our suggestions, and usually they don't imply them into the core system. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 10 years experience is they rarely do, at least mine ^^ But no wonder.. I do the same in my community, look into suggestions 100 people screams about or enter suggestion when having too much spare time - hardly ever. When you become age 35+ and have family, dev is no longer the same as before, heh. Edited May 24 by PatrickRQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
