Do not bump your own post after three or four hours of posting.

i think admins and users are so busy studing or something. itÂ´s so hard just to answer yes or not? maybe is more fun let beginners users watching u guys talking hard expression and words, or just answer in a few (few few few) words to let us more and more confused!

Thank u for the answer Mr. DJPaul, it helps me alot! iÂ´m going craaaaazy! d!@#

3 tips:

1) Take a deep breath.

2) Don’t insult one of the most helpful people on the board.

3) Its a good question and I don’t know how to do it but maybe check out how the blog works and reverse engineer it. If you get too stuck, put it aside for awhile and work on something else. Then go back to it later with a fresh perspective.

Cheers.

If I understand your question correctly, you’ll want to think of it as a single widget that appears differently for different members.

Use http://wpengineer.com/wordpress-built-a-widget/ to build a new widget. In function widget(), figure out which user is logged as follows:
```
global $bp;



if ( $bp->loggedin_user->id == 1 ) {

/* Display the stuff you want user 1 to see */

} else if ( $bp->loggedin_user->id == 2 ) {

/* Stuff you want user 2 to see */

} /* etc */
```

I guess if you don’t need it to be user configurable you could skip creating a widget and just hardcode the sidebar into your theme.

Would the widget logic plugin work for you?

I’m not really following what you’re trying to do but I know the widget logic plugin is fantastic for controlling when widgets get displayed.
