You must be careful using

$uid = $xoopsUser->uid();

You should use:

if (is_object($xoopsUser) && $xoopsUser->getVar('uid') > 0){
$uid = xoopsUser->getVar('uid');
} else {
$uid = 0;
}

I do not know if this is the problem but you should use this anyway.

$uid = $xoopsUser->uid();

If your block was visible to anonymous you would get an error because $xoopsUser would not be defined.

Check your block template name. It should not conflict with any other. But I can't understand Why this does not work for users with same permissions. Check your debug info.

You test user is active I believe or you would not be able to edit his info.Well, I´m missing it.

finally i figured it out! At the end of my php code the line

return $links;

was causing the problem. If the user hadnt submit any then the $links array was empty and the block was invisible! I replaced that with

return true;

and works now finally!

How stupid can i be??? Dont answer that
