    Getting member groups from member id (or any other method)

    Hi, has anyone found a good method for finding out what member groups the current member belongs to from the xslt level?  I had a look and found a work around from 2 years ago but was wondering if a better solution had been found, or whether a function had been added to the library that I am just unable to find.

    Basically I have some properties on a page that I only want to be displayed if someone is a member of the 'Staff' member group.  Open to suggestions on other methods of doing this also.

    Hi Samuel,

    We have an few XSLT extensions in uComponents for member groups...

    http://ucomponents.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Members

    To find out if a member is part of a group... (returns boolean)

    IsMemberOfAGroup(string groupName, int memberId)

    or to get a list of all the groups that a specific member belongs to... (returns an XML nodeset)

    GetGroupsByMemberId(int memberId)

    If you have any questions - let me know.

    Cheers, Lee.
