PHP Call to display a verbiage

[dinoslikeroar]

How can I go about adding a verbiage to a landing page to display for a certain group? Landing page is index.html. Need to do a php call. Not sure what other information I need to provide to get help. tia.

Do you have a way to determine if the certain group is online, such as a login?

Do you have a way to determine if the certain group is online, such as a login? 

This below is what's being used to pull that information. 

$special_group = $account_info['account']['screeningGroup'];

$scrn_grp_no_spaces = preg_replace('/[\s]+/', '', ucwords(strtolower($special_group)));

Have you tried using the if construct? Basically, you would enclose the extra verbiage with the if construct.

<?php
if($special_group == 'group name goes here') {
    //extra verbiage goes here
}
?>

If multiple groups need to see the extra verbiage, you could use the in_array() function. More information can be found here:

Landing page is index.html.

 

I just noticed the above text. Does your page need to be named with a .html extension? You typically need to use a .php extension to run PHP. Of course, servers can be configured to run PHP code in .html files.

There will be a list of six groups that need to see this. The file is .html but has php and is config to run. Would it be something like this? If I need it to display above the Heading info

 

$special_group = $client_info['account']['screeningGroup'];

$spc_grp_no_spaces = preg_replace('/[\s]+/', '', ucwords(strtolower($special_group)));

 

$special_group = array('Student', 'Medical', 'Testers', 'Contractor', 'Volunteers');

if (in_array(($special_group)){

          //veribage text

 

}

 

  array(

        'text' => <<<APHtml

        <div>

            <p>

                <b><u>Heading</u></b>

            </p>

            <p>

                Display text here.

            </p>

        </div>

APHtml

The $special_group variable contains the visitor's group information, so you don't want to overwrite that. You could try something like this

<?php
$special_group = $client_info['account']['screeningGroup'];
$spc_grp_no_spaces = preg_replace('/[\s]+/', '', ucwords(strtolower($special_group)));
 
$groups_with_access = array('Student', 'Medical', 'Testers', 'Contractor', 'Volunteers');
if (in_array($special_group, $groups_with_access)){
    //veribage text
}
?>
