Member Function Documentation

Elgg\UserCapabilities::canAnnotate ( ElggEntity  $entity,
  $user_guid = 0,
  $annotation_name = '' 
)

Can a user annotate an entity?

Can be overridden by registering for the plugin hook [permissions_check:annotate:<name>, <entity type>="">] or [permissions_check:annotate, <entity type>="">]. The hooks are called in that order.

If you want logged out users to annotate an object, do not call canAnnotate(). It's easier than using the plugin hook.

Parameters
ElggEntity$entityObjet entity
int$user_guidUser guid (default is logged in user)
string$annotation_nameThe name of the annotation (default is unspecified)
Returns
bool

Decides if the access system should be ignored for a user.
