You can use the permission checker to see if the user has the ability to, say, post a comment on an article. That's something that is usually granted to members but not to guests and the permission checker can easily resolve that for you.

To check in theme if user is a portal admin, site admin or site owner of the current site add this to init_custom.ftl in /src directory of theme.<br /><br />&lt;#if is_signed_in&gt;<br />    &lt;#if permissionChecker.isOmniadmin()&gt;&lt;#assign is_portal_admin = true /&gt;&lt;/#if&gt;<br />    &lt;#if permissionChecker.isGroupAdmin(group_id)&gt;&lt;#assign is_site_admin = true /&gt;&lt;/#if&gt;<br />    &lt;#if permissionChecker.isGroupOwner(group_id)&gt;&lt;#assign is_site_owner = true /&gt;&lt;/#if&gt;<br />&lt;/#if&gt;<br /><br />Anyone know how to find out if the user is a member of the current site so I can do is_joined or is_site_member?
