What is the correct substitution for the viewer of a profile page rather than the owner?

I want to show something only if the viewer has an ID of 62 or 67

For example the statement below shows the word 'Hello' on the profile page of user ids 62 and 67

[cb:if user_id="62" or user_id="67"] Hello [/cb:if]

How do I change it to show on all pages but only when users 62 and 67 are viewing?

I will replace the 'Hello' with something meaningful of course.
As it happens it will be my field cb_reasonforjoining so that the two of us can see this.

Thank you in anticipation :)

See our substitution tutorial below where all substitution usages are described.

www.joomlapolis.com/support/tutorials/107-use-cases/18353-using-substitutions-throughout-cb

Specifically the below for example will display the field based off the viewing user and not the displayed user.

[cb:userfield field="FIELD_NAME" user="#me" /]

The same works for IF usages as follows.

[cb:if user="#me" username="demo"]This is Demo watching.[/cb:if]

Thanks Kyle

I have set it up like this and it works well:

[cb:if user="#me" username="Mike"][cb_reasonforjoining][/cb:if]
[cb:if user="#me" username="Mila"][cb_reasonforjoining][/cb:if]

Could I have used an OR ?

Yes, you can use the and/or usage with that as well. See the substitution tutorial. There are and/or example IF usages shown at the bottom of the tutorial along with other IF usage examples.
