How to get user that's currently signed in

odannyc · February 2016

Hey, can anyone assist with pointing me in the right direction?
Within a controller does anyone know how to get the information of the current user that's signed in ?
For example do something like this: $this->currentUser['UserID'];

Gdn::session() - >UserID

$Session = Gdn::Session();    
//Check if user is signed in
    if ($Session->IsValid()) {
    //get user name
    $UserName = $Session->User->Name;
    //get User Id
    $UserID =$Session->User->ID;
     }

Example of usage

$this->AddLink('User', $Name, '/profile/{UserID}/{Username}', array('Garden.SignIn.Allow'), array('class' => 'UserNotifications'));
