Need help with [MemberCheck] Snippet

Line 65 is ok, the script causes a parse error on line 71 now:

Please help me, I have no idea how to fix this error.

Hi yoomai,

The error is caused by the ’self::instance’ calls. Now, after having a quick look, I believe that this prefix can be removed and replaced with ’$instance’.

Oh, and don’t forget to make the page uncacheable, else you’ll scratch your head for ten minutes like I just did.

EDIT: please see here for my modified php4-compatible version.

Cheers, Garry

I’ve attached a patched version of MemberCheck, I’ve tested it and it appears to work as intended. Could you do the honours and give me a second opinion

Yes, that one works! Thank you, Garry!! aka PHP Superhero

hi!


I installed membercheck_php4 and it works fine! My only problem is the not working &ph-function!

What can I do to solve the problem and show a specific snippet if the visitor has not the right to see the content of the chunk, which is protected by "MemberCheck"?


Thx for your reply!

Hi simon79,

I recently revisited the Membercheck snippet and made a few more tweaks to my modded version, one of them was adding in the missing placeholder functionality.

I have now uploaded this to the repository: http://www.modxcms.com/MemberCheck-PHP-4-861.html

Hope that helps,
Garry

Hi Garry!


Thanks for your quick reply!

Can I use a chunk called "&ph=`CHUNK-NAME`" to set this chunk as placeholder which displays e.g. "You can only see the full content, if you´re logged in!".

Sorry for my english!

Hi Simon79,

No, use &chunk to specify the chunk name, and &ph to specify the placeholder name, for example:

The above call would output the ’myChunk’ chunk if the user was a member of the Site Admins group, and would output the content to [+myPlaceholder+].

So, you just place the [+myPlaceholder+] in your page where you would like the chunk to be outputted.

Hi Garry!


Is there a possibility to show a specific text to not logged in visitors? E.g. "You have to login to see ..."

Use the "Unauthorized page" setting at MODx system configurations to point to the document which has that info.

EDIT: Now that I read it again, I may have misunderstood what you mean, so please expain more.

Hi doze!


I want to split my content into two parts:

The first part (e.g. my document contains a list of 10 points) as "preview" shows point 1 + 2.

At point 3 I insert the chunk containing the rest of the list. My intention is that only logged in users can see the full list. Other visitors should see a message "You have to login to see the rest of the document!" at the point I insert the MemberCheck-chunk. But only visitors get this message, logged-in users see the complete document without the "You have to login..." message.

I hope you can follow my description!
