hello-user.r

This dynasnip presents a variation on the "hello world" dyna presented in tutorial-dynadev-hello. The tutorial was contributed by zippo.

If you copy the code below into a file, say "hello-user.r" and save it to your <path to vanilla>/apps directory you can have your vanilla create a nice welcome message for new users when they create their account.

context [
    handle: func [ /local rank ] [
	if none? user [ return "Hello Vanilloid!" ]

	either users-is-master? user 
	    [ rank: copy "master" ]
	    [ either users-is-associate? user 
		[ rank: copy "associate" ]
		[ rank: copy "user" ] ]

	return rejoin ["Hello " rank " " (user/get 'name)]
    ]
]

What we get here is by using the {!hello-user} dynasnip the message will be the generic "Hello Vanilloid!" for guests and for logged in users they will be greeted with, eg: "Hello user zippo" where 'user' is the member ranking the master has given the user.

From here if you put {!hello-user} in your vanilla-new-user.snip file the new personalized greeting will be inserted into each user page upon creation. :-)
