Unclear how to set IF substitution

hello

I have CB Content module with inside only [cb:if cb_getsubiddelimi="2"]My text[/cb:if].
When the condition is meet, I would like show the text on all pages EXCEPT on my own view/edit profile. If I set the module to not be published on view/edit profile menu item this work but the text is of course also hidden when I'm on any other users profile.

I played for a while with substitution without found the right solution. :blink: I don't know if this is possible to do.

Any clue please ?

The substitutions work different based off their location. In the case of the CB Content module it needs to know what user you want the substitutions to apply to. So your IF conditional should specify the target user as follows.

[cb:if user="#me" cb_getsubiddelimi="2"]My text[/cb:if]

That should ensure the substitution always applies to the viewing user.

I tested:

#me = module is displayed on all pages and profile

#displayed = module is hidden on all pages and profile (including my own Edit profile page) but is displayed on my own profile

#displayedOrMe = module is hidden on all pages and profile

Any clue ?

#me = User viewing
#displayed = User displayed
#displayedOrMe = User displayed otherwise user viewing

With that said #displayed will only work on CB profiles or anywhere that fires the API call to set the displayed user. #displayedOrMe or supposed to be both with priority for the displayed user and fallback to viewing user.

To have the condition you're wanting I believe the below should work ok.

[cb:if user="#displayed" user_id!="myid" cb_getsubiddelimi="2"]My text[/cb:if]

That's only going to display on CB profiles though and only if the user id of the displayed user doesn't match the user id of the viewing user. I'm not entirely sure you can have the exact condition you're wanting.

I tried your suggestion but the module does not appear on any pages.

It seem CB Content do not support fully substitution like in user profile. Ok is not a big deal even if I wanted get a customized message in a special case. Except if you have another suggestion, I will abandon.

The module appearance is based on the Joomla ACL setup that you have configured.

Once the module appears then the code in the module wil lbe executed to filter the message based on viewer.
