I would like an "admin" link, in my module, similar to the one in ms_weather that would allow users in a specific group to have admin rights to my module. I see how to allow admin rights to a module if you are webmaster but not if you are just a member of a group.

Also what does "$xoopsModule->mid()" do? I notice it is deprecated and as such there is no explanation of it. Where might I find what methods replace those that are deprecated?

Here is the ms_weather code snippet I'm working from. I need to check to see if the user is in a specific group to allow them to see the link to the admin page for this module.

// For Administrator only: Admin Menu
if ($xoopsUser && $xoopsUser->isAdmin($xoopsModule->mid())) {
$isadmin = true;
} else {
$isadmin = false;
}
if ($isadmin) {
echo "<br />";
OpenTable();
echo "<center><a href=\"".XOOPS_URL."/modules/ms_weather/admin/msweatheradmin.php?op=MSWeatherAdminGUI\"><b>"._MSW_ADM."</b></a></center>";
CloseTable();
} else {
echo "<br />";
}


Thanks

getVar('mid') is the replacement for the deprecated method mid().

Here's the way to check if a user has admin rights to the current module:

Thanks, what is "mid"?

If you look at xoops_root/kernel/ you will find all the major class for xoops. Look for module

Silly me... Ofcourse! Thanks...
