    I have a third party aMember script which inserts a block into aMember dashboard.

    Plugin works great, but need to hide all block stuff (header, box, etc) if a user doesn't have a specific product.

    This way, the block only shows for users who have the product. I'm guessing hiding blocks with the existing css classes is the easiest method.

    Maybe a function similar to this will work in site.php

    Code:
    $user = Am_Di::getInstance()->user;
if ( in_array(5, $user->getActiveProductIds()) ) {
    But, I can't figure out the rest. I tried to contact the plugin author but I can't seem to reach them.

    I have these two div ids:

    #cert-download-head
    #cert-download

    Anyone have a suggestion on how to hide these, unless user has a specific product?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hello,

    The best option is add block conditionally actually.

    but in case of it is not possible to do by any reason then
    you can hide this block from PHP in site.php file.
    http://www.amember.com/docs/Site.php_file

    Here is example of code snippet to do it:
    PHP:
    if ($user = Am_Di::getInstance()->auth->getUser()) {
        if (!    in_array(5, $user->getActiveProductIds())) {
                Am_Di::getInstance()->blocks->remove('cert-download');
        }
    }
    Best Regards.
