Check for a permission using custom objects

Hi, I want to check whether a user has the permission to escalate the post or not on ForumTopicPage using context object like ${coreNode.permissions.hasPermission("can_update_community")}

 

But I am not able to get it, is there something wrong in this or how I can get it?

 

Thanks, Sunny

  • Hi sunny_mody - You have to use following:

     

    <#if coreNode.permissions.hasPermission("update_community")>
      <!-- Content goes here -->
    </#if>

     

    It is update_community instead of can_update_community.

     

    I hope this helps.
