Question about The Authentication Library

[eluser]NateL[/eluser]
Using Adam Griffiths' Auth Library and I'm wondering if it's possible to have an admin element on a page that is not in the Admin backend.

For example, my structure looks like this:

controllers/
--admin
----admin.php
----users.php
----upload.php
--project.php

Now, if someone goes to example.com/project/*id*, it pulls up the project info.

However, if I am an Admin, and I've already logged in - and I go to that page to view it, I still want to see some Admin navigation elements - such as "upload to this project" or something like that.

is it as simple as running a conditional statement?

if authenticated -> display nav menu

Another scenario - Think about WordPress...when you are making changes in the Admin panel, and then you click "View Post" - at the bottom of that post, there is a link that says "Edit this post" or "edit this page".

Yeah, just use a conditional statement for that. You can have it within the view, just something like

Code:

<?php if(authenticated): ?>

<b> Admins are cool </b>

&lt;?php else: ?&gt;

<b>Users aren't</b>

&lt;?php endif; ?&gt;

or if you will be displaying a lot of differences, you could create two different view and load one for admin and one for everyone else.
