Hi,

How do I show different content (in this case some intro text) for logged in users and not logged in users on the review tab in a product page (before the rating and review)?

I edit “default_reviews.php” (in template folder/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails
and normal “echo” text shows up fine (eg: echo JText::_ (“Text here”); )

But how do I make the text appear differently for logged in and logged out users?

I tried:

if ( $user (‘guest’) == 1 ) {
echo JText::_ (“Text here”);
} else {
echo JText::_ (“Something else”);

But that does not work… It shows the same text “Text here” for both logged in and logged out users.

Some idea anyone?

Thank you.

All the best,

Calavaro

Hi Calavaro,

Your concern relates much to Joomla issue than our template, you should search in Joomla forum first, hope these tips can help:
