Hi Anthony,
Thanks for getting back - I understood your point. I included it
in one of my functions and called it where it worked. for example I called
it in dashboard() function which is used to show the dashboard and is the
first landing page of my application. However now whenever I want to
navigate to some other page it gives me the following error - Basically it
is the same error I got before. It is trying to fetch value of user_right1
.
I have even defined* user_right1* as global and provided a default value
for example
global user_right1
user_right1=False
*Error*:
127.0.0.1.2018-06-06.15-16-08.ba03dfb3-628e-42bf-9b34-fe8a6d34c5ec
*<type 'exceptions.NameError'> name 'user_right1' is not defined*

Code in my controller is pretty simple it retrieves the value stored in the
database and checks whether it is *True *or *False *and based on the value
it provides module access to the users
*default.py *
global user_right1
user_right1 = False
def dashboard():
##Code to retrieve the value
user_right1=True
return dict(user_right1=user_right1)
in my *layout *page - *sbadmin2_layout.html - Remember this is the layout
page *
{{if patchmanRight==True:}}
<li>.....
--
-- Show few modules else not
</li>
{{pass}}
What could be done to fix this issue as it will keep on giving me this
error for every other navigation in the application unless it is
dashboard.html ?
Thanks!
