It turns out that this code works:
function mymodule_comment_view($comment) {
global $user;
if ($comment->uid == $user->uid){
$comment->content['field_extra']['#access'] = FALSE;
}
}
Question
My comments have a field called 'Extra'. I'm trying to hide it when the user who's viewing the comment wrote it. This is my custom module:
function mymodule_comment_view($comment) {
global $user;
if ($comment->uid == $user->uid){
unset ($comment->field_extra);
}
}
Why isn't this working and what's the correct way to achieve my goal?
Solution
It turns out that this code works:
function mymodule_comment_view($comment) {
global $user;
if ($comment->uid == $user->uid){
$comment->content['field_extra']['#access'] = FALSE;
}
}
OTHER TIPS
Did you remember to change to "hook" part of the function name to the name of your module?
function MODULENAME_comment_view($comment) {
global $user;
if ($comment->uid == $user->uid){
unset ($comment->field_extra);
}
}
The rest of the code should work. You shouldn't need to pass $comment by reference, so remove the "&"-character again if you still have it in.
