I have an app where 99% of it requires users to be logged in, BUT there are a few pages (Scene\_33,  Scene34, & Scene\_36) that are embedded in a public site so their page tabs naturally show up on Login Pages even before users have logged in...   Just for cleanness, I need a way to hide the page menu from just the login pages.  Any ideas? ---

Hello Anthony, try below code  $(document).on('knack-view-render.any', function (event, view, data) { if(Knack.getUserAttributes()=="No user found") $("#app-menu-container").hide(); else $("#app-menu-container").show(); }); if not work then you need to share your app with me or mail me    Thanks, Sunny Singla [ssingla1985@gmail.com](mailto:ssingla1985@gmail.com) +919855089359 ---

Hi Sunny or anyone. Please help a noob out. Two questions: > [@Sunny\_Singla](#): > > $(document).on(‘knack-view-render.any’, function (event, view, data) { > if(Knack.getUserAttributes()==“No user found”) > $(“#app-menu-container”).hide(); > else > $(“#app-menu-container”).show(); > }); (1) This is CSS, right? Not Javascript? (2) Where do I enter the page I want to be hidden from the menu? What do I enter? The URL for the page? I need this as a workaround to the fact that you cannot create “Rules” to hide content on public pages. I want a public “news” page and a members-only news page that contains the public articles and member-restricted articles. Of course I can create a separate members-only page, but then I need to hide the public page from the main menu when the user is logged in. Thank you! ---

Hi @Katelyn, Here’s a solution specific to your needs: 1. Create a public **Articles** page (`scene_xx`) 2. Create a login-protected **Member Articles** page with URL ‘_member-articles_’, and hide it in the page menu 3. Add this code to your **Knack JavaScript** editor, replacing `scene_xx` with your public page scene key, and change the `member-articles` URL slug if need be. ```auto Knack.router.on('route:viewScene', function(slug, search) { const currentScene = Knack.getCurrentScene(); var sceneKey = Knack.scenes.getBySlug(currentScene.slug)?.get('key'); if (sceneKey === 'scene_xx' && Knack.getUserAttributes()?.id) { window.location.href = '#member-articles'; } }); ``` Whenever someone visits your **Articles** page, this code will check if that user is logged in, and if so, will redirect them to the **Member Articles** page immediately. If they aren’t logged in, they will remain on the Articles page. You might also want to put a friendly link on the public **Articles** page which says something like: '_Already a member? Click here to login’_, linking to the **Member Articles** page. Hope that’s useful! ---

Maybe one more related question . . . I have a “log in” button in the top main menu that links to a login page. I want this hidden when the user is logged in, or I want to change its text (to the actual title of the login page). Any ideas? ---

Hi @Katelyn, I’d recommend you have a menu link on your public page rather than in the header menu, which links to the login-protected page: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/knack/original/2X/3/38bd6e9bab6d6c5991e282939e45e78c0868e883.png) A coded approach relies on hard-coding the original content in the link, as well as ensuring that all logged-in/non-logged in users can see all links regardless of role by ensuring the below setting is unchecked: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/knack/original/2X/9/9ca07a077f244788dac35619b709794644c015fa.png) If you still feel strongly about this, here is some code: - Replace `#projects` with your scene URL - Replace `fa fa-briefcase` with your menu link icon, and `Projects` with your menu link title ```jsx $(document).on('knack-view-render.any', function (event, view, records) { const $menuLink = $('.knHeader__menu-link[href*="#projects"]'); const linkContent = ` Projects` if (Knack.getUserAttributes()?.id) { $menuLink.html(linkContent); } else { $menuLink.html('Login'); } }); ``` **How it works:** - Every time a view render on a page, it will determine if the user is logged in. - If the user is not logged in, it will change the specified link text to ‘Login’. - If the user is logged in, it will set the specified link text to its default. ---
