[support] Dynamically display menu items?

[toon severijns]

Hey Joel, thank you so much!
I think i could do it if i would be able to load the currently logged in
user in the "Show if the following PHP code returns TRUE" box of the menu
block. Can i do that? How?

Alternatively, could you elaborate a bit on your last suggestion please?

Best,


Toon
