How to make a widget only visible for admins

Question

Hi, I'm trying to make a widget only visible for admins.

The widget which I want to do that is the qa_activity_count

the file location is: qa-include --> qa-widget-activity-count.php

I tried to add this bit of code that I saw in the qa-page-admin-stats.php file but it doesn't work 

if (!defined('QA_VERSION')) { // don't allow this page to be requested directly from browser

    header('Location: ../');

    exit;

}

 

Answer 1

in the file qa-include --> qa-widget-activity-count.php 

 

search for the function output_widget and add the code inside the function 

 

if (qa_get_logged_in_level() < QA_USER_LEVEL_ADMIN) {

      // if level is less then the admin then dont print anything . 

      return "" ; 

}

For Example -- 

 

function output_widget($region, $place, $themeobject, $template, $request, $qa_content) {

    /*

     SOME CODE HERE 

   */

    if (qa_get_logged_in_level() < QA_USER_LEVEL_ADMIN) {

           // if level is less then the admin then dont print anything . 

           return "" ; 

    }

   /*

         SOME CODE HERE ALSO 

   */

}

Hope This Helps .
