Permissions based Navigation Menu items?

Anquoc_Tran

I have created a new navigation menu to appear alongside the 'personal' menu, in which there are several sub-menu items.I want to display these submenu items depending on the user's access privileges.I have tried to do this using FactoryUtil permissions set using custom Usage Privileges, but this does not seem to work. It appears that the menu is drawn the first time Livelink is accessed following a restart, and the menu items drawn are dependent on the first user. This can be best explained with an example: If I log on first as a user without the necessary usage privilege the menu item is not displayed ever, even for users with the priviledge who subsequently log on. Visa versa, if I first log on as a user with the privilege, all users can see the item.Does anyone know if it is possible to dynamically display sub-menus based on the user's group?

From what I know, this is normal behavior. These menus are built to be static and so are cached for performance purpose.The only way I see you could achieve what you want is by removing your menu from the cache each time you generate it or hook at a higher level to force it to render.I don't have the functions or assoc names to do this but if you need some help, I may try to look at it.Good luckLouis
