Don't Laugh at Me: How to Add JS to Widget to Display Text

rod

Please keep all snickering to a quiet din!

How would I go about creating a script to display text in a NodeBB widget based on the value of a variable? For example when I try the following I get an error that document.write is not a function.

<script type="text/javascript">
{
    if(app.user.username === me) {
		document.write('Display This Information');
    }
}
</script>

Thank you.

You want something like this

<script type="text/javascript">
    if(app.user.username === 'me') {
         $('#someElement').html('some content')
    }
</script>

I have to say that programmatically being able to show and hide content in a widget is fabulous. I now have a Global > Global Header widget that displays an image and text only when it is the "home" page.

This is how I implemented one widget:

<widgetGH1></widgetGH1>
<script type="text/javascript">
    if(location.href === 'https://example.com/') {
         $('widgetGH1').html('<img src="//example.com/uploads/image.png">  Site Welcome Text');
    }
</script>
