Is there a way to show/hide widgets conditionally? Specifically based on group membership.

I would like to have the ability to hide Google Ads (or other ads for that matter) for users that belong to a particular group.

I would preferably like to have the widget not rendered at all (as opposed to display:none after loading). The reason is that, IIRC, Google penalizes sites that "hide" ads.

(Also, I'm never quite sure which category to post these questions in. If it exists, I don't want to build it. If it doesn't I want to know how to build it.)

That's an interesting idea, we could definitely add that into the widget options

Well, looks like @baris thought it was a good idea too because it got coded in
