Community Auth and navigation - AndrewDFrazier - 03-30-2016
I'm trying to use Community Auth on a new project - which is, I have to say, my first proper CodeIgneter project - and I've got as far as being able to log in and log out which is great.
I've created a couple of views for various pages and I've split out my main navigation into separate views, also.
My problem now is that I want to have items on the navigation that visible dependant on the user level or role of the logged in user. If I wrap a menu section in
Code:
if( $this->require_group('group_name') ) {
// menu items here
}the application errors with
Code:
Call to undefined method CI_Loader::require_group()How can I, therefore, restrict sections of my application and not have errors? Do I need to create my navigation in a controller rather than a view?

Normally in views you are going to use the available authentication variables.
See: http://community-auth.com/documentation/usage/authentication-variables
Like this:
PHP Code:
<?php
if( in_array( $auth_role, array('Admin','Manager','Supervisor') ) )
// ... show a menu item ...
