Hi,

How can find out if any user is logged in to the DNN website. I want to check if any user is logged in and display a page differently (for logged in user and not logged in visitors).

One more Qs which is not exactly connected to DNN. I have a datalist with a select and a custom button. I want to display those button only if the user if logged in  otherwise the user would just see the data not those buttons. How to go about this. I think I can check out if user is logged in and hide teh button otherwise. But is it possible to hide/display buttons in a datalist conditionally . I mean, the button inside a datalist can't be accessed from outside right? Pls guide.. i am a bit new to all these ;-(
 

HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated will be true or false depending on whether the current user is anonymous or logged in to your site.

So if you had a button named btnSelect.. you could just set the visible attribute in your page load based on that value.

EDIT: Sorry just noticed you are talking about buttons in a datalist, so you'd  have to put that code in your ItemDatabound function for your datalist. Then for each row as it's being bound, fnd the button control using teh FindControl() method and set it's visibility as described.
