Thx! This is exactly what I need. Is it possible/feasible to update to 1.18?

MediaWiki:Sysop.css / MediaWiki:Sysop.js What you could have: == Template:MsgForUser == <div class="msgforuser msgforuser-{{lc:{{{group|user}}}}}"> {{{msg|Hello this message is for a specific user-group only}}} </div> == MediaWiki:Common.css == .msgforuser { display: none; } == MediaWiki:User.css == .msgforuser.msgforuser-user { display: block; } == MediaWiki:Sysop.css == .msgforuser.msgforuser-sysop { display: block; } == My awesome page == Welcome {{MsgForUser | group=sysop | msg=master }}, how are you today ? Which will display "Welcome, how are you today?" or "Welcome master, how are you today?" depending on the membership of the user. Right out of the box support for content for registered-users only, or sysop, or any other usergroup you may have. Only takes a few css settings, no JS dependency either. The only catch is that it's not in 1.16 or 1.17 -- Krinkle _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
