Hi Jon
You can hide or show stuff easily by using the ACL, i.e. restricting access to
nodes to certain groups and have all nodes displayed on your page. If user A
loges in, only his nodes will be displayed and so on…
If you want to do this programmatically instead of using the ACL you can easily
get the current user from MgnlContext (which is also accessible from the
Freemarker template (${ctx.user}).
