We know that Joomla 1.6 and up has access levels groups settings but this little hack could help everyone from 1.5 and up
this there outputs the params from specific Joomla menu item
$menus = &JSite::getMenu();
print_r($menus ->_items[170]);
where 170 are the parameters for menu item id 170 , now there is a setting called published , what I am trying to achieve is show menu item to visitors only by globally setting the $menus ->_items[170]->published to 0 instead 1 when user is logged in
but changing that array value is hard so if you could please just check if you can change the value output from 1 to 0 by using provided info.
f we can get that to work than code snippet could be something like
if ( !$user->id ) { $menus = &JSite::getMenu(); $menus ->_items[170]->set('published',0); }
but set() does not work for menu item id's
Thank you!
