Brainstorming PHP code

Ranging God · **Posted:** February 19th, 2013, 10:39 am

So I am working on my senior project. It is a database for my University.

Anyway, the program I am using doesn't let me hide values from the public. For instance there will be a picture up and I want to hide the price for public users, but not for admin/contributor.

I know a little PHP (I mean I ve dont like 20 tutorial videos) is there an easy way to add a line of code that is something like

if (admin = true)
show
else
hide

something like that?

You've pretty much got it:

Code:

if ($user->isAdmin() == true) { // or just use if ($user->isAdmin()) -- shorthand works too
// Do something here
}
else {
// Do something else
}

The boolean logic in PHP is pretty much the same as you'd find in other languages like C or Java. You just need to get your variables that you're working with and make it so.

Awesome, thanks.

I am going to start messing with it next week so I will update then.
