I feel kind of silly, and I have searched these forums a bazillion times without finding anything that works, but here is my problem. I have a member information page. I want to be able to make it so that an admin (group 3) or the member whose record it is, can change the password, but no one else.
I have tried panels and show-hide on before show events (show hide on the submit button and show hide on the form), both of which I managed to do wrong since it did not work. If someone wouldn't mind giving me a stupid friendly description of how to fix that, I would be immensely grateful.
My apologies in advance because from reading the forums and my familiarity with ccs, it would seem to me like it is a straightforward task, yet I just can't seem to grasp it.

Before Show event of the submit button:
show/hide the button on the condition:
$Component->Visible = ((CCGroupID() == <your admin group>) || (CCGetUserID()
== <fieldname>)) ? true : false;
the fieldname is from your record, something like
$Container->DataSource->UserID->GetValue(). That's got to be worked out
based on your specific form, I'm not able to give the correct reference.
Just put an 'echo' statement in the button BeforeShow and display the value
to be sure you have it correctly specified.

So I would create a before show event on the button, and use custom code (pasting the text you posted)? Or is that a value inserted under a parameter using the show-hide?

The event. Not just pasting the code, substituting your correct data values
after you do.

Thank you Don. I will give it a shot later on today and hopefully return with a boisterous show of gratitude :)

I feel really dumb, but I can't seem to get the userid side of it to work. For some reason it does not seem to pass the userid from the form into the events. The ccgetuserid is pulling fine, and the the groupid works like a champ, but I just can not seem to figure out what I am doing wrong with simply pulling the userid which is a hidden field in the form.
The field is userid (all lowercase) and I am adding custom code on before show event. The code is in a page called maint_events.php I am so sorry to bother folks with what to me seems like a dumb error I am making or some simple option I am overlooking.
Do I need to declare userid somewhere as a global?

Would it help if I posted the events.php code?

Yes please do, so we can count the number of equal signs used in the condition. Kidding always good to post code here
