Usage#

This plugin provides a Field Type where you can select one or more user groups. To create the field, go to Settings → Fields in your control panel.

​

Field Settings#

There is 3 display modes:

• As a dropdown, where you can select only 1 group.
• As a group of checkboxes, where you can select 1 or more groups.
• As a group of radio buttons, where you can select only 1 group.

​

Templating#

To list the group(s) selected:

{% set groups = entry.userGroupFieldHandle.getGroups() %}

{% for group in groups %}
    {{ group.name }}
{% endfor %}

To get only the first group:

{% set groups = entry.userGroupFieldHandle.getGroups() | first %}

{{ group.name }}

To check if the current user is in any of the groups selected:

{% if entry.userGroupFieldHandle.inGroup(currentUser) %}
    <h1>User can access</h1>
{% endif %}

To check if the current user can access something based on the group selection:

{% if entry.userGroupFieldHandle.canAccess(currentUser) %}
    <h1>User can access</h1>
{% endif %}

Note: This check is always true for admins.

You can also query a User Group Field based on the uid of a user.

{% set userGroup = craft.app.userGroups.getGroupByHandle('myUserGroup') %}

{% set entries = craft.entries.section('blog').userGroupFieldHandle(userGroup.uid).all() %}
