On my user profile I have various tabs (view, my bookmarks, translate, ...). the problem ist, those tabs should only be visible for profile owner and not if I visit another profile.

Some of those tabs (bookmarks, submissions) are set via view: user/%/submissions with a menu tab - the permissions here are set. But how do I set permission for those tabs only to the current user?

Alter menu and set 'access callback' => 'user_access' Or if you have custom profile tpl then render tabs like this:

global $user;
if (arg(0) == 'user' && $user->uid == arg(1)){
  //*******render tabs here*********/
}

  • if I set $items['user/%/view']['access callback'] = 'user_access' I can't the see tab, even if I am on my own profile. Also do I have to set this for every single tab?

  • /** * Implementing hook_menu_alter * Restrict MENU TABS access */ global $user; function MODULE_NAME_menu_alter(&$items) { if(isset($user) || $user->uid !=0) { $items['user/%user/yourtabname1']['access callback'] = FALSE; $items['user/%user/yourtabname2']['access callback'] = FALSE; //Change the MENU PATH as per your requirement. } } Yes ,you have to set permission for each tab.
