New Plugin: CP Access

“bo-oz” on the EE forums posted a new plugin called CP Access, that allows you to determine whether a user has CP access with a simple tag pair.

{exp:cp_access}Only Visible to Members with CP Access{/exp:cp_access} 

There are other ways to do this (that don’t require a plugin), but this is a handy, PHP-free way of checking for control panel access.

CP Access is free and available for download in the EE forums. I downloaded and tested the plugin in my EE sandbox running 1.6.7 and it worked as expected.
