Hi I am working on the Forum Sample from the Solutions Pack.
So far so good I have applied security in so much as posts are now made by logged in members with , users table, user_id and user_login.
On the View Thread page I would like to add an Edit Button to the response, but this can only be visible to the member who owns the post.
I have tried show-hide component in the before show event unsuccessfully .
This functionality was implemented on this forum back in 2006 see here

Any and all help would be appreciated.

This is a general approach, would require more detail but should help get you started:
1. Have a hidden field on the form whose source is the creators userid that was stored in the record for that post, read the value and declare it a variable for use in a comparison.
2. Make sure the edit button visible property is dynamic.
3. In the before show event for the form add some custom code.
// Read the value of userid from the from and declare it as a variable called "$userid"
Custom Code
$userid = $formname->userid->GetValue():
// Compare the variable $userid with the current user session variable "UserID" and set the button visible if equal, or not visible if not equal
If (CCGetSession("UserID") == $userid)
$form->Button_Edit->visible = True;
If (CCGetSession("UserID") != $userid)
$form->Button_Edit->visible = False;
Also, play with having the form features set to update panel. This is not always the recommended but it gives a good feel for seeing fluid hiding and showing of dynamic components.

Closed - Resolved
By setting the link Visible property to Dynamic I have archived this, with the Hide-Show Component in the before show event. By comparing the userid (link) to the session user id .
Thanks for help
