Awesome Jan!

Thanks again,

Hi Jan,

I hate to keep bugging you on this but the only memberID that this works for in my case is 'admin'. I can get the others to work only if I use their individual member ID's. The Group isn't working even though those individuals are in the groups specified? This below is what I have which does work for the individual members, but would rather do this by group if possible.

var dv = AppGiniHelper.dv;

AppGiniHelper.getMemberID(function(memberID) {

if (memberID != 'admin' && memberID != 'jharbit' && memberID != 'mlemerick' && memberID != 'mleagre') {
dv.getFields(["price_lb", "markup_percent", "price_total"]).hide();
}});

As I have said above, AppGini, by default, does only provide functions for getting username, not group name.

If you want to check other than username, this will not work with built-in functions.

If you want to check group name, you will have to pass this data from server to client somehow. See my full explanation and working solution above.
Kind regards,

Good morning David!

(2) hiding columns of TV using AppGini Helper Javascript Library

Single column

Code: Select all

// file: hooks/TABLENAME-tv.js
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
    AppGiniHelper.TV.hide("columnname")
});
Multiple columns

Code: Select all

// file: hooks/TABLENAME-tv.js
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
    AppGiniHelper.TV.hide(["columnname_1", "columnname_2", "columnname_x"])
});
Hi Jan,

Can we hide the columns based on member group? same as dv fields..

Sure.

Your only challenge is: get to know the user's group.

AG does not provide that information on client side. Only for username, not for group.

You will have to implement that by yourself (pass the groupName or groupID from PHP to Javascript OR retrieve it from your own API script for example via AJAX).

Jan, I tried the steps from the blog post by Ahmed, and it worked, but there were too many edits, unlike AGH, where a single line of code is enough. So, I was wondering if it would be possible to achieve this like the DV edits. I only want specific TV columns to be hidden for everyone except admins..

The JAVASCRIPT library can only provide client side functionality (browser). It can not provide server side functionality for technical reasons. It is just not possible.

For additional server side functionality you need an additional PHP Script, for example.
