  Depends on which data you have to get the user(s) in question
  then get that data directly or first find his(their) uid(s).
  So, which is the context?

  Not really PHP but how about this?
  

  Code

  <!--[pnmodapifunc modname="Groups" type="user" func="getusergroups" uid=$uid assign="usergroups"]-->
  <!--[foreach item="group" from=$usergroups]-->
      <!--[if $group.gid eq 1]-->
            statement
      <!--[/if]-->
  <!--[/foreach]-->

  This sound like you need to set the correct permissions for each group for the module. And if the modules are done right and the correct permissions are set, then the users in the groups that do not have permission to view that module's content wont see it.

  You should be able to do this just with permissions. I tried it out on my test site. Any time you have a module that you are setting new permissions for, follow these steps.
  

  • First, look at the pnversion.php file to see how the permission scheme is laid out. For pages it's very nice for what you want to do. Here is how it's listed.
    

    Code

    $modversion['securityschema'] = array('Pages::Page' => 'Page name::Page ID');
    
    This means you can identify each page either by its name, or its id
    
  • Now go to the permissions module when you are logged in as an administrator.
    
  • Create a new rule and enter these codes. This example assumes the page ID is 1
    Group -- (The group name you want to limit it to)
    Component -- Pages::Page
    Instance -- .*::1
    Permissions Level -- (The level of access you want to give them)
    
  • Save your data and test. That should do it.
    

  
  Here is a good summary page on Permissions http://community.zik…ag=PermissionsAdmin
