Get UID

[Moritz Friedrich]

I'm trying to modify the shoutbox plugin a bit, so I can style own shouts differently. Therefore, I need the current users UID, so I can do something like

if  (shout.fromuid === app.uid) {
  // add custom class in template
}

Now I tried different variables which I saw at other points in the code (app.uid) or work in the developer console (app.user.uid) But they are both undefined.

Any hints on how to get the UID?

Disclaimer: I'm a noob with JS. But I learn, so bare with me

Client side app.user.uid should be defined. Where are you trying to call it?

Inside of the client script... Anyway, I just restarted NodeBB and tried it again, it works fine now Thank you!
