Display specific field in item view ONLY for an author was created by brandonking

Hi,

I am trying to use a text field as a hyperlink or button to trigger un-publish link.

But, I ONLY want to display this text field for an author in item view(not item form view).

Does anyone know how to achieve this without hacking?

Thanks for your time.

Regards,

need to create a group for your author ...
or edit tour template

Code:

<?php 
$user =& JFactory::getUser(); 
$userName = $user->get( 'name' ); 
if ($userName == 'YOURNAMEUSERWANTED') {
} else { 
echo YOUR POSITION OR FIELD; 
} ?>
