Unfortunately for the Trashing event this doesn't seem to work correctly. I have seen the WriterId come through as 0, even when I've triggered a deletion using a different user.
Is there a way to retrieve the user who triggered the Trashing event
What other approaches can I use to implement this requirement?
private static bool PrincipleHasPermission(ApplicationContext context, ContentServiceEventAction eventAction )
{
// Taken from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35364220/get-current-user-in-umbraco-version-7-3-5 after trying
// several more elegant approaches that just didn't work
var userTicket = new System.Web.HttpContextWrapper(System.Web.HttpContext.Current).GetUmbracoAuthTicket();
if (userTicket != null)
{
var currentUser = context.Services.UserService.GetByUsername(userTicket.Name);
if (currentUser.IsAdmin())
{
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
}
ContentService - Trashing event, determining the user that triggered it
I have a requirement to prevent all users from deleting documents of a certain document type, expect for the admin user.
My first thought was to attach an event to the
ContentService.Trashingevent handler to achieve this by settingargs.CancelA Google turned up https://our.umbraco.com/forum/using-umbraco-and-getting-started/75966-contentservice-how-to-get-the-user-who-triggered-the-event that suggests
e.Entity.WriterIdcould be used.Unfortunately for the
Trashingevent this doesn't seem to work correctly. I have seen theWriterIdcome through as0, even when I've triggered a deletion using a different user.Thanks
Hi,
You can get the current logged in user from below link. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25476810/how-to-check-if-user-is-logged-on-not-member
Now, you can check if this user has permission and if yes then only allow trashing event.
