Finding out type of user with JS

Hello all :slight_smile:
I’m trying to figure out how to find out using Javascript, if the current user is admin, moderator, in a special group or a regular user without any privileges. I found out that I could checkout Discourse.User.current() and it has groups. But Is there a better, more common way to do this?

I too have a mind that races sometimes and what appears in the text shows two thoughts put into one word. It is amazing how the brains does this.

Wait what two words is “mendator”?

I am assuming they mean moderator, but a moderator / mentor sounds like an interesting concept! :grinning:


ahaha, yes I meant moderator, sorry for that :slight_smile:
