Nope, sorry if I wasn't clear. The problem is not setting a user to
roles A,B,C. There is no problem saying IsUserInRole("A"). If the user
has roles A,B,C then they will be ok. The problem is this:
If you do
<cfif isUserInRoles("a,b")>
You may think, "This is how I check for A OR B"
However, what it's really doing is "Is User in roles A AND B"
So, there is no native way to check if a user is in EITHER role A or B
(or whatever).
If that is what you want, you simply rewrite as:
<cfif isUserInRole("A") or isUserInRole("B")>
Or you use the UDF I mentioned at cflib.
Does it make sense now?
A typical scenario where you need this is the concept of
For this action, only an editor or the ROOT admin can do it.
Ie, ROOT users can do _anything_.
That help?
