Usergroup Permissions

[Cupara]

How can I call user group permissions in an add-on? I am looking for the 'clean' way of doing it so that all code is consistent.

Thanks

I know not 24 hours but figured if peeps see 1 reply they may respond. So anyone have any ideas?

It depends how you want to call them. You can use XenForo_Permission::hasPermission() to check if a user has a permission.

Well I want to set it up in the file and use say $canViewShop so would I do this:

$canViewShop = XenForo_Permission::hasPermission('xshop', 'canViewShop');

You can do it this way:

XenForo_Visitor::getInstance()->hasPermission('xshop', 'canViewShop'))

or this way:

XenForo_Permission::hasPermission($user['permissions'], "xshop", "canViewShop");

replacing $user['permissions'] with an array of the current user's permissions.

I'll do the first way, its shorter.

Thanks for the help James, if I have issues, I'll post back.
