Hi I have made my own user group / level in Joomla with the parent being "registered"
The new group / level is called "Claim Admin"
I have 2 menus
Menu 1 for Registered users
Menu 2 for Claim Admin
Currently with Joomla ACL:
Claim Admin users can see Menu 1 and Menu 2 when logged in
Registered users can see Menu 1 and NOT Menu 2 when logged in (this is correct)
I want Claim Admin users to only see Menu 2 and Not Menu 1
Can this be achieved with Conditional Content?
I tried the following in the component by adding a rule.
Exclude Users
Claims Admin [claimsadmin] [570]
AND
Exclude Menu Items
Menu 1 (All)
But the menu is still viewable by claimsadmin
Thanks for any pointers on how to do this.

You cannot use Conditional Content to hide/show menu items, as you have no way to surround the items with the {show} tags.
Are you trying to show/hide complete menus (modules)?
Or menu items?

Hi Peter thanks for the reply.
I'm trying to hide individual menu items if possible.
I guess i could use advanced module manager to hide menu modules instead?

To hide individual menu items by access level, simy use the Joomla core access level assignment in the menu item itself.
Advanced Module Manager can only control the display of the entire menu module. Not individual menu items.
