DougS: is there any possibility to evaluate the user within the ranking hierarchy? E.g. if a user has reached a certain (minimal) rank and from there on he/she can see the content that is only meant for users with that rank and higher?

DougS, I too am interested in figuring out if you can display content based on where someone falls within the ranking hierarchy.

luk, did you ever get an answer on this?

    Hi that-pat,

    We do not return any information in the API that tells you the rank hierarchy.

    What we usually recommend for this type of customization is to configure the ranks where you want someone to have a new level of access so they assign a role when you achieve that rank. Then you can key off of that role in your customizations to grant different users access to different stuff.

    I hope that helps!
