Access controlled links

The CMS Questions
1

I’m using this plugin

But how do I make it not show links when generating out something like this. Basically, we don’t want to show that the page exists for certain people.

<nav>
  <ul>
    <?php foreach($items as $item): ?>
    <li><a<?php e($item->isOpen(), ' class="active"') ?> href="<?php echo $item->url() ?>"><?php echo $item->title()->html() ?></a></li>
    <?php endforeach ?>
  </ul>
</nav>

Check if a user is locked in and if this user has the right to view the page for each item:

<nav>
  <ul>
    <?php foreach($items as $item): ?>
      <?php if(($user = $site->user()) && $user->role() == $item->accessControlField()->value()): ?>
        <li><a<?php e($item->isOpen(), ' class="active"') ?> href="<?php echo $item->url() ?>"><?php echo $item->title()->html() ?></a></li>
      <?php endif ?>
    <?php endforeach ?>
  </ul>
</nav>

You might have to adapt the second condition, I don’t know what is stored in your field.

Keep in mind that you can not use cache with this technique.

Looking at what is saved to file, the if statement has to be changed a bit:

<?php
$firewall = $page->firewall()->yaml();

if(($user = $site->user()) && in_array($user->role(), $firewall['roles'])):
  // your code
endif;
