Hiding/showing content by member tag

I've created a region and associated template to display Employees. I'd like their contact details only to be visible if the user is logged in and has the tag "Staff" and/or "Manager". If the user isn't logged in or the tag doesn't match the information isn't displayed.

I'm not sure how to use the <perch:member has-tag="staff"> to hide/show the following

<perch:content id="Telephone" type="text" label="Telephone" required="true" title="true" /><br/>
<perch:content id="Mobile" type="text" label="Mobile" required="true" title="true"/><br/>
<perch:content id="Email" type="text" label="Email" required="true" title="true"/></p>

Just wrap it:

<perch:member has-tag="staff">
    <perch:content id="Telephone" type="text" label="Telephone" required="true" title="true" /><br/>
    <perch:content id="Mobile" type="text" label="Mobile" required="true" title="true"/><br/>
    <perch:content id="Email" type="text" label="Email" required="true" title="true"/></p>
</perch:member>

Hi Drew,

That's what I thought, however when I view the page unlogged in I still see the 3 bits of information which should be hidden until I'm logged in (as a user tagged as staff.)

Are you using a perch_content() region? If so, swap it to perch_content_custom()

I wasn't so I've just changed it (deleted all the regions and the page itself and set it up from scratch) but the items remain visible when not logged in.

Do you see any Perch tags left in the page source?

Yes. there's a </perch:member> at the end of the block.

<article>

<h1>Who's who</h1><div class="staff-sticker"> <img src="/admin/resources/chrisgrimes.jpg" alt="Chris grimes" class="employee"/> <h2>Chris Grimes</h2> <p>Shop Manager</p> <p>Blah</p> <p>Well</p>

<p> 01386 700123<br/> 07970 123456<br/> manager@blockleyshop.co.uk</p> </perch:member>

</div> </article>

Interesting..! As an experiment, can you remove the <br/> tags and test again?

I've removed the <br/> tags completely and the the 3 items are still visible and the stray </perch:member> is still appears in the source.

You should be getting a much shorter report than that. Was this a clean install of 2.5.2?

Yep, it was a while ago though, pre 2.5 upgraded as and when new versions have been released

Thats the extended report the summary info is thus…

Will update to 2.5.3 see if that makes a difference.

Hi Drew,

Just updated to 2.5.3 unfortunately the problem still persists. Here's the latest diagnostics summary if that helps.

This is definitely being displayed using perch_content_custom()?

Can you reduce it to a simpler test case?

I'll have a go.

Hi Drew,

I'm using the following to call define the regions

<?php perch_content('Heading'); ?>
<?php perch_content_custom('Content'); ?>

and then in then following in the template used for the Content region…

<perch:member has-tag="staff">
<p><perch:content id="Telephone" type="text" label="Telephone" required="true" /><br/>
   <perch:content id="Mobile" type="text" label="Mobile" required="true"/><br/>
   <a href="mailto:<perch:content id="Email" type="text" label="Email" required="true"/>" title="<perch:content id="Email"/>" class="email">Email <perch:content id="eFirstName"/></p>
</perch:member>

The members login is appears to be working because I can show and hide parts of the navigation depending on member tag.

I've tried a fresh install on another site and the same thing happens. (Including the stray </perch:member> tag showing up in the source)

So at any point are you checking if the member is logged in or not?

Hi Drew,

I think this is where I've got confused. I though that I was checking if the member was logged in by using the <perch:member has-tag="boardmember"> in the template to restrict the display of content. So do I need to check in the page also? Could you give me an example of what I should be doing - thanks.

I'm not sure - I'm just looking for clarification of what's on your page.
