Display TV if the user is member of group?

I'm very new to ModX and I'm trying to figure this out, but I'm stumped and my Google-Foo is failing me. I am building a store for a friend of mine and she wants to be able to offer wholesale pricing to people who're logged in and default consumer pricing if they aren't.

I have the default price in a TV and I was going to create a new TV for Wholesale pricing, but I don't know how to only display one or the other if the user is logged in. Is this possible?

I found the code here: https://rtfm.modx.com/revolution/2.x/developing-in-modx/other-development-resources/class-reference/moduser/moduser.ismember for figuring out if they are a member of a group, but I think that's snippet code and I don't know how to use it to do what I'm trying to do in my chunk.

Any help would be appreciated.

in your /manager/?a=element/snippet/create

name isLegitMember
code

<?php
$user = $modx->getObject('modUser', array('id' => $modx->user->get('id'))); // get present user infos
if ($user) {
  if ($user->isMember(array($group))) {
    $page = $modx->getObject('modResource', $pageId);
    return $page->getTVValue($tv);
  }
}

In your HTML template or particular resource, make this call

[[!isLegitMember? &pageId=`[[*id]]` &group=`Administrator` &tv=`wholeSale`]]

This should also do it if you have the Personalize extra installed. Put this tag where you want the price to appear:

[[!Personalize?
    &yesChunk=`@CODE:[[*Wholesale]]`
    &noChunk=`@CODE:[[*Retail]]`
    &allowedGroups=`Administrator,customer`
]]

Wholesale and Retail are the names of TVs holding the wholesale or retail price. Only members of a group listed in &allowedGroups can see the wholesale price.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Is this written somewhere in the documentation where I can read up and learn more?
