Make sure to add in the space, otherwise it won't know what group you're referring to: $user.isUserInGroup("XWikiAdminGroup") should read $user.isUserInGroup("XWiki.XWikiAdminGroup"). Note that there is an easier way to get admin rights though; by using "hasAdminRights()". Otherwise use the isUserInGroup -----Original Message----- From: users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:users-bounces@xwiki.org] On Behalf Of Vitantonio Messa Sent: 26 October 2007 11:56 To: XWiki Users Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] isUserInGroup Hi Ricardo, you need to call it from an user object, hence: - #set ($user = $xwiki.getUser()) ## to retrieve the current user, or getUser("XWiki.UserName") to retrieve any user - $user.isUserInGroup("XWikiAdminGroup") ## to check if this user is in the admin group I didn't try the code, but it should work fine.
