I have the following master page in asp .net:
<%@ Master Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="KezberProjectManager.master.cs" Inherits="KezberProjectManager.KezberProjectManager" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<style type="text/css">

padding-top: 60px; /* 60px to make the container go all the way to the bottom of the topbar */
}
</style>

The navigation is made like this for every page:
<div class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<div class="container">
<a class="btn btn-navbar" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".nav-collapse">
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</a>
<a class="brand" href="#">Test</a>
<div class="nav-collapse collapse">
<ul class="nav">
<li class="active"><a href="#">Calendar</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Boss Stuff</a></li>
<li><a href="#contact">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</div><!--/.nav-collapse -->
</div>
</div>
</div>
What I cannot figure out is how could I make it so that, if admin is requesting the page, add the Boss Stuff link?
In terms of session management and all that it’s all good, I’m able to determine in my code behind if the user is admin, what I do not know is how to add the boss link only if he is admin on page load.
What might be a ‘best’ or standard practice way to do this?
Thanks
I mean, literally, how do I, from my page load event, add links to my navigation. How do I go from the CS to the aspx?
Assuming you are using .Net membership, something as simple as this could be done if you want to do it in the page markup:
