Custom Menu item for certain users

Annad

Hi all,
do you know if there is a way to restrict a user from seeing a certain custom menu item. I know it could be configured for roles.
I want to have a custom menu item for only some specific users.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Anna.

Do not think (in 5.5x) that you can go it per person. However we get the iwuser and if it is not
a certain user, will not run the item.

Take a look at this thread: Custom Visual Format Options. Perhaps you can do the same?

The thread referred to doesn't really apply - as that thread refers to options within a VFE field within a DCT - where filtering *does* exist down to the user-level.

Custom menu configuration currently does not exist to that level, only to role level, and not by branches either.

The approach that has been used in the past with, I believe, the most success, is to create 'preface code' for your custom menu item scripts that check to see if it is an allowed user in an allowed area before performing the operation. Some, I believe, have taken this further to the point where they have only a single custom menu item which determs the user/role/branch information and then presents a set of "sub" custom menu items for the user to choose from.

I believe that approach remains the only true way to get this kind of granular control over custom menu usage in TeamSite.
