<font size="2" face="sans-serif">from a point of view of security, I don't think that JavaScript is a good way, since it can be turned off or changed browser side.</font><br>

<font size="2" face="Calibri">Hi all,</font><br>
<font size="2" face="Calibri"> </font><br>
<font size="2" face="Calibri">Is there something set up in ePrints that allows you to get user details (such as type/role, email, etc.) via javascript? I did have a look through the auto.js file but didn’t see anything, though given the size of that file it’d be very easy for me to miss something obvious!</font><br>
<font size="2" face="Calibri"> </font><br>
<font size="2" face="Calibri">The reason I ask is that I want to show a section in the abstract details only to admins (which is currently set up in cfg/citations/eprint/control.xml). I originally tried to modify that section, but with the caching it obviously didn’t work. I then tried to use a pin but had the same problems. Someone responded to my original EPrints UK User Group post (</font><a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/eprints-uk-user-group/LloconUdLDg"><font size="2" color="#0563C1" face="Calibri"><u>https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/eprints-uk-user-group/LloconUdLDg</u></font></a><font size="2" face="Calibri">) suggesting that js may be a good way forward.</font><br>
<font size="2" face="Calibri"> </font><br>
<font size="2" face="Calibri">If there’s not something already available then I could update the main template to include a json object of the user details which I can then use later on in the page. But hopefully someone else has already tried to add/show content dynamically based on role (or any other user property, I imagine) and can give some advice.</font><br>
<font size="2" face="Calibri"> </font><br>
<font size="2" face="Calibri">Many thanks,</font><br>
