I need to display information if a user is not in a role:

For example I need to display two different search results, one set for a registered user (not subscribed) and one for a registered paid-up (subscribed) user:

[ISNOTINROLE:XXX]

My Template (REGISTERED BUT NOT SUSCRIBED ROLES)

[/ISNOTINROLE:XXX]

OR, for the subscribed user

[ISINROLE:XXX]

My Template (REGISTERED AND SUBSCRIBED ROLES)

[/ISINROLE:XXX]

Would like this functionality to be added to all relevant sections, such as search, listings, views, etc.

Sorry this is in the wrong section, should be under Property Agent if you can move it?

Hi Scott,

Did a quick test and it worked great (I only tested it for the LISTING template though). Thanks very much for a prompt response.

By the way, I know logging out and back into DNN to test different behaviours for different roles is time consuming, so perhaps other members will be interested in this quick identity switcher which makes it a lot quicker when doing development where functionality is role dependent- see it here

Just done a more comprehensive test using two different users, one with an assigned role 1Subscriber and one without.

I used the following in each template file:

[ISINROLE:1Subscriber]I am a subscriber[/ISINROLE:1Subscriber]
[ISNOTINROLE:1Subscriber]I am NOT a subscriber[/ISNOTINROLE:1Subscriber]

My users were:

Test_Not_Subscribed = NOT in role 1Subscriber

Test_Subscribed = IS in role 1Subscriber

I have highlighted the results below where the behaviour is not as expected.

LISTING TEMPLATE

Test_Not_Subscribed: I am NOT a subscriber (<= Works OK)

Test_Subscribed: I am a subscriber (<= Works OK)

OPTIONS TEMPLATE

Test_Not_Subscribed: I am NOT a subscriber (<= Works OK)

Test_Subscribed: I am a subscriber I am NOT a subscriber (<= NOT OK!)

VIEW TEMPLATE

Test_Not_Subscribed: Just sends me back to the search page, I cannot view the property at all (<= NOT OK!)

Test_Subscribed: I am a subscriber (<= Works OK)

SEARCH TEMPLATE

Test_Not_Subscribed: I am a subscriber I am NOT a subscriber (<= NOT OK!)

Test_Subscribed: I am a subscriber I am NOT a subscriber (<= NOT OK!)

MESSAGE TEMPLATE

Test_Not_Subscribed: I am a subscriber I am NOT a subscriber (<= NOT OK!)

Test_Subscribed: I am a subscriber I am NOT a subscriber (<= NOT OK!)

Hopefully that will allow you to debug it fairly quickly.

I think it needs to be added to the above templates to provide maximum flexibility.

Sorry to be a pain, but if you've added to the LIST template for specific roles, would it be possible to add it to the MESSAGE template ASAP since if you customise the LIST view for a role you also need to customise the MESSAGE view in case a result is not found.

Regards.

Sorry to dig this one up again. Did you ever add ISAGENTNOTINROLE? Now I need to differentiate content based on if an agent is subscribed.

Thanks. That would be greatly appreciated if you can do it in the next release.
