ok, it actually does still work - I just had to redo it and I messed up first time. This is from kevincam's post on page 3:
Added this after the last parameter of the XML file for whatever module you want to hide for example the login module which is located here (modules\mod_login\mod_login.xml):
Code:
<param name="show_registered" type="radio" default="1" label="Show Menu When Logged In" description="Show the menu also when a registered user is logged in">
<option value="0">No</option>
<option value="1">Yes</option>
</param>
Then replace the function render( $position, $params = array(), $content = null ) in \libraries\joomla\document\html\renderer\modules.php with the following
Code:
function render( $position, $params = array(), $content = null )
{
$renderer =& $this->_doc->loadRenderer('module');
$contents = '';
foreach (JModuleHelper::getModules($position) as $mod) {
// HACK: added code to check if module should be shown when a user is logged in
$pattern = '/show_registered=0/';
$match = preg_match($pattern, $mod->params);
$userId = $_SESSION["__default"]['user']->id;
if ($match && $userId) {
// simply continue the loop without outputting this module
continue;
}
// --- end HACK ---
$contents .= $renderer->render($mod, $params, $content);
}
return $contents;
}
UPDATED: I noticed that modules that use the module count need an additional hack to the file:
\libraries\joomla\application\module\helper.php
after the line $modules = array();
and before the line $db->setQuery( $query );
Code:
//HACK check in logged in then run query to exclude the correct modules
if($userId = $_SESSION["__default"]['user']->id >0){
$wheremenu = isset( $Itemid ) ? ' AND ( mm.menuid = '. (int) $Itemid .' OR mm.menuid = 0 )' : '';
$query = 'SELECT id, title, module, position, content, showtitle, control, params'
. ' FROM #__modules AS m'
. ' LEFT JOIN #__modules_menu AS mm ON mm.moduleid = m.id'
. ' WHERE m.published = 1'
. ' AND m.access <= '. (int)$aid
. ' AND m.client_id = '. (int)$mainframe->getClientId()
. " AND m.id NOT IN (SELECT id FROM #__modules WHERE params LIKE '%show_registered=0%')"
. $wheremenu
. ' ORDER BY position, ordering';
}else{
$wheremenu = isset( $Itemid ) ? ' AND ( mm.menuid = '. (int) $Itemid .' OR mm.menuid = 0 )' : '';
$query = 'SELECT id, title, module, position, content, showtitle, control, params'
. ' FROM #__modules AS m'
. ' LEFT JOIN #__modules_menu AS mm ON mm.moduleid = m.id'
. ' WHERE m.published = 1'
. ' AND m.access <= '. (int)$aid
. ' AND m.client_id = '. (int)$mainframe->getClientId()
. $wheremenu
. ' ORDER BY position, ordering';
}
//HACK
/*ORIGINAL CODE

) but it didn't work.
