Hi,

I want to extend the backend controller with a field. But, this extra field had to be only visible when the logged in user has the right permissions. I tried something like this, but this is not working:

    if (!$this->user->hasAccess('roywcm.storeblogs.manage_own_store')) {
        UsersController::extendFormFields(function($form, $model, $context){

            if (!$model instanceof UserModel)
                return;

            $form->addFields([
                'store' => [
                    'label'=> 'Store',
                    'type'=>'relation',
                    'nameFrom'=> 'name'
                    ],
                ]);

        });
    }

i'm getting this error:

Undefined property: Roywcm\Storeblogs\Plugin::$user

Allright, I figured it out:

    UsersController::extendFormFields(function($form, $model, $context){
        if (!$model instanceof UserModel)
            return;

        $user = BackendAuth::getUser();
        if($user->hasAccess('manage_stores')){
            $form->addFields([
                'store' => [
                'label'=> 'Store',
                'type'=>'relation',
                'nameFrom'=> 'name'
                ],
                ]);
        }
    });

where do you put that script?

In the boot() function in your plugin.php file.

Note, that you can also create init.php in plugins root directory and put such stuff there.
