remove IF Statement from custom component

Hi Wendy_S  - removing the if condition would work fine, please try and let me know if this helps.

Thanks for the quick response. Just to be sure....

will that be this part. Two lines

<#if role.name?? && (role.name == "PHD" || role.name == "Ambassador" || role.name == "Administrator")>
<#assign user_has_role = true />

Or one line like this

<#if role.name?? && (role.name == "PHD" || role.name == "Ambassador" || role.name == "Administrator")> 

Thanks!
Wendy

Hi Wendy_S ,

if you want some "pretty" code, you may want to consider functions and macros.

In your example, I will write something like this

<#function user_has_role role_name_seq >
......
        <#if role_name_seq?seq_contains(role.name)>
                <#return true />
       </#if>
.....
</#function>


<#assign super_roles = ["PHD", "Ambassador", "Administrator"] />
<#if user_has_role(super_roles) >
....
    you are a super user!
....
</#if>

Is it the same for the 2nd component we have that is a little more extensive.

The simple component simply has a header and a link to the unanswer thread search page.

the other component has the header and list the 15 unanswered threads on the board.

It looked like your response was more based on the simpler component on the forum home page.

Thanks!
Wendy

Let's do one more......In this one. I would need to remove the text I highlighted in red. right?
Did I pass?

:-)

<#assign user_has_role = false />

<#if user.registered >

<#list restadmin("/users/id/${user.id?c}/roles").roles.role as role>

  <#if role.name?? && (role.name == "PHD" || role.name == "Ambassador" || role.name == "Administrator" || role.name == "PLEDGE")>

   <#assign user_has_role = true />

  </#if>

</#list>

</#if>

<#if user_has_role >
