Admin area permissions array admin_perms

[joedavis]

Hello,

 

I am trying to create a template which will allow support staff to view the client summary page (and others) without necessarily viewing all of the content on the page. I would like to hide the Invoices/Billing area for example but not the other areas on the Client Summary page.

 

Within the menu I can check if the user in a role by using this bit of smarty:

{if in_array("View Orders",$admin_perms)}

 

But, that array isn't available to the clientsummary.tpl template for some reason. I created a hook for the AdminAreaPage hook to create my own admin permissions array and it works properly, except that the array isn't available on the clientsummary.tpl template.

 

Here's my hook:

add_hook("AdminAreaPage",1,"joeadminareahooks_permsarray");

function joeadminareahooks_permsarray($vars) {

$vars['_adminPerms'][] = $admin_perms;

return $vars;

}

 

What in the world do I need to do to get an array to be available on the clientsummary.tpl template? Am I missing something simple somewhere?

trying to fix silly space in code that isn't really there but the editor wants it to be there

[sentq]

where is the complete code?

is it meant to be like that? "perm sarray" the space i'm talking about

[joedavis]

That is the complete code. It's very simple.

 

The space isn't supposed to be there and it's not there in my code but for some reason when I pasted it, it shows with a space. I even went back and edited the post, completely removed that line and typed it by hand and the space is still there. I figured there was something screwy in the editor.

Hi Joe

 

Did you ever get to the bottom of this - it's exactly what I need to do too.

 

Thanks and regards

Hi Jeff,

 

No I haven't gotten to the bottom of it and WHMCS Support told me today that I need to ask this question, along with this one, in the forums. Hmm, I think I have already done that.

Dudes, no need to get grumpy...it's quite simple

 

Here you go, try this:

 

function joeadminareahooks_permsarray() {
 $command = "getadmindetails";
 $results = localAPI($command);

 if(strpos($results['allowedpermissions'], "View Orders"))
   echo "Whatever...";
}
add_hook("AdminAreaClientSummaryPage",1,"joeadminareahooks_permsarray");
