[SOLVED] I'm the owner/admin of the website but why is my role member?

I want to show/hide a custom menu based on different roles but my admin account is identified as a member. Here’s how I checked the role via code:

let userRole = wixUsers.currentUser.role
console.log(userRole)

In the console logs it shows up as Member. I made sure that I logged in my Owner/Admin account.

Am I missing something? I spent the entire day figuring this out, I’ve read other threads as well. I’m stumped and I’m really desperate.

Anyone?

Can you console-log it for me and show the console-log (using google-chrome)? I do not have the possibility right now to do it myself.
console . log ( userRole )
Waiting for Screenshot.
Also open all given 3-dots(objects) inside the log.

As i can remember the role includes an array with 2 different roles–> [0],[1]

@russian-dima Thank you so much for responding, here’s the screenshot.

Just to clarify, I assign the roles via Dashboard>CRM Tools>Site Members right?

Ok, i checked the problem for you and i could figure out that everything works like it should.

After login as ADMIN, i get this console-log in my Browser…


Here the code for you to do the same…

import wixUsers from 'wix-users';

$w.onReady(function() {
  let currentUser = wixUsers.currentUser; console.log("Current-User: ", currentUser);
  let userRole = wixUsers.currentUser.role; console.log("User-Role: ", userRole);
});

Please next time try to do exactly what is asked from you → using the console.log of your browser instead of the integrated one, provided by the wix-editor.:wink:
When i do a LOG-OUT, the result will be the following…


So you must do something wrong. I think the user you are logging-in is not an ADMIN.

@russian-dima I just tried out your code and it works! Thank you so much! Terribly sorry for sending you the integrated console.log results. I’ll definitely keep that in mind. Thanks again!

And to reply your question, which i did not see first time…

Just to clarify, I assign the roles via Dashboard>CRM Tools>Site Members right?

Yes, thats right! Or you generate your own Role&Badge Management-System, like shown in this Login-System-Example…
