skylinegtr - You need to see the roles in the user profile, if the user has the Employee role, show this link, else not. Try the following code. Replace the Employee_role in the code with the role name you have set for employees.

 

<#if user.registered >  <#-- if the user is not anonymous -->
	<#assign show_module = false />
	<#list restadmin("/users/id/${user.id?c}/roles").roles.role as role>  <#-- REST call to get the user's roles -->
		<#if role.name?? && (role.name == "EMPLOYEE_ROLE")>    
			<#assign show_module = true />
		</#if>
	</#list>
<#if show_module>
	<!-- Show the items with access here -->
</#if>

 

 

I hope this helps.

VarunGrazitti - Thanks for the code. I've added the code but getting an " error message." I've checked line 170, column 6 and I don't see any problem. 

Freemarker template 'ContentWrapper' parsing failed:

ParseException:Parsing error in template "ContentWrapper" in line 170, column 6:
Unclosed #if when the end of the file was reached.
