Hey guys, I'm trying to figure out how to pull this off.

For example, on my administrator page I want to show a custom banner and on one of my staff member pages I want to show another custom banner for that specific user, and a different custom banner to show on all profiles.

What would be the correct coding...if possible?

Thanks

Probably the easiest way is to allocate the 'profile groups' separate quotas, then use the $profile_quota_id variable in the templates to show the different options -
{if $profile_quota_id == 1}
Do This
{elseif $profile_quota_id == 2}
Do That
{else}
Do the Other
{/if}
Put a {debug} in the template first to make sure $profile_quota_id is a valid variable for the template. It might be part of the $_items array if the template you want to modify is a 'row' template.

If this is going on the profile page, you could check the _profile_id and show the banner that way... ie.

{if $_profile_id == '1'}
Show banner code to the master admin only...
{elseif $_profile_id == '2'}
Show banner code to profile ID 2 only....
{else}
Show banner code to everyone else...
{/if}

Hope this helps,
Douglas

Ah yes - You did say 'specific user' ;-)
The Douglas solution is probably better in that case.
