There is currently no way.

You could modify the "sidebarhider" plugin to fold in some specific sidebars. You could also enhance the plugin to automatically hide some plugins only for not logged in users.

To completely hide a plugin (not only via JavaScript) would mean you'd need to modify the plugin itself you want to not display.

Inside the generate_content() method of a sidebar plugion you can do a check:

Code: Select all

function generate_content(&$title) {
global $serendipity;

  if (!$_SESSION['serendipityAuthedUser']) {
    return false;
  }

  // more code here
}

Actually I have not yet come up with an idea that would make this function appear in all plugins, because as you mention it would mean to have a new column.

I will further ponder about it and hope to come to a solution

I have just committed a simple plugin API hook into the 0.9 core. You can patch it easily in your 0.8 CVS:

http://svn.berlios.de/viewcvs/serendipi ... r1=7&r2=93

And then I've committed the hiding functionality into the sidebar hider plugin. How's that?
