How do I make a button disappear based on who’s seeing it?

I am trying to make it so if you have already submitted something you cannot submit it again.
Or if you didn’t make a post, you can’t see a certain button.

How would I do this? Do I need to use queries?

Thanks!!

Hello Melia,

let’s do some brainstorming first.

QUESTION: What i want to do (to achieve) ?

Aim:
STEP-1: Find ID of a USER which is currently logged-in, right?
STEP-2: You will have to save the current-users input-state into DATABASE, after he has pressed a button, right? (DATA-SAVED)
STEP-3: After saving the button has to be disabled, right?

So, as you can see there are several steps to achieve your aim.

And now do it STEP by STEP…

  1. How to get the ID or e-Mail of the current-user?

import wixUsers from 'wix-users';

// ...

let user = wixUsers.currentUser;

let userId = user.id;           // "r5cme-6fem-485j-djre-4844c49"
let isLoggedIn = user.loggedIn; // true

user.getEmail()
  .then( (email) => {
    let userEmail = email;      // "user@something.com"
  } );
  1. How to safe USER-INPUT-DATA into database with a button-function…

import wixData from 'wix-data';

//------------------------------------ USER-DATA-INTERFACE -----------------------------------------
//var DATABASE =    "Switch-Save-Function"
var DATASET =   "dataset1"
//------------------------------------ USER-DATA-INTERFACE -----------------------------------------
var currentItemIndex

$w.onReady(function () {
    $w("#"+DATASET).onReady( () => {
        $w('#TXTmember').text="Member-"+currentItemIndex
        $w('#BTNsave').onClick(()=>{
 if ($w('#BTNswitch1').checked===true){$w("#"+DATASET).setFieldValue("btnStatus", true);}
 else {$w("#"+DATASET).setFieldValue("btnStatus", false);}
            $w("#"+DATASET).save();
        })

        $w('#BTNnext').onClick(()=>{console.log("NEXT")
            currentItemIndex = $w("#"+DATASET).getCurrentItemIndex()+1
            console.log(currentItemIndex)
            $w('#TXTmember').text="Member-"+currentItemIndex
        })

        $w('#BTNprevious').onClick(()=>{console.log("PREVIOUS")
            currentItemIndex = $w("#"+DATASET).getCurrentItemIndex()+1
            console.log(currentItemIndex)
            $w('#TXTmember').text="Member-"+currentItemIndex
        })
    })
});
