Hack: Hide any module for logged in users ONLY

You could try looking at the javascript triggered by opening a tab, and then see if you can add to that trigger something that will hide the module using JPane. But I think it would be a lot of hassle.

With great thanks to coolparth
viewtopic.php?p=1703749#p1703749

Code:

<?php
               $my =& JFactory::getUser();
               //Followed by your code..
               if($my->id>0){
               echo "<jdoc:include type=\"modules\" name=\"right\" headerLevel=\"3\" />";
               }else
               {
               echo "<jdoc:include type=\"modules\" name=\"top\" headerLevel=\"3\" />";
               }
            ?>

I now have this working perfect,
Thanks

If any of you are still looking for this hack for 1.0.15, for a custom module (type USER), you would have to edit custom.xml. Took me a while to figure it out, and thought it might help someone.
Thanks for the hack.

anyone get this working for 1.5 AND the hack for only certain users? There's no frontend.php file in 1.5...

Hi,

You can use MetaMod to do that.

and that module will allow me to hide other modules or just that one module?

You can show different modules and hide any module which is loaded by that module.
