Role-Based Content in SharePoint Content Editor Web Part

The requirement here is: My client wants to show different contents in the content editor web part to Anonymous users and authorized users. To handle these kind of security trimming, we usually use “Security Trimming” in the master page.

But here, the end-user doesn’t want to place the content on the master page, as it will repeat on every page. The requirement is targeted on ONLY one page. So, We need role-based content inside the SharePoint content editor web part.

Alright, Here is the solution for the issue:

Insert the below code to Master page: (You can insert just below <form runat=”server” onsubmit=”return _spFormOnSubmitWrapper();”> )

<script>
  var UserHasPermissions=false;
</script>

<Sharepoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl runat="server" PermissionsString="ManageWeb">

  <script>
    UserHasPermissions=true;
  </script>

</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl>

Save & Publish the master page.

Now, In the content editor webpart on the target page,  place the below logic code.

<script>
if (UserHasPermissions)
{
  // Place the content for Logged-in user 
}
else
{
 //Place the content for anonymous user 
}
</script>

That’s it, we are done.
