    I added some custom bbcode, but want the button to only be accessible to admins. How would I be able to do this?

    A conditional wrap around the code. In hindsight, it should work.

    Yup, but where do I put the conditional?

    Tony, that looked like the solution to my problems but there are a few issues being reported by folks in the 3.8x series not being able to use it. Are you using it now with a 3.8.4 install?

    I have a custom bbcode that I've added a button for convenience in the editors. I want to be the only one to be able to see it though. Any thoughts on what I could/should do?

    I don't use it, but I remember viewing it.

    Thanks Nick, I guess I'll give it a go :)

    I noticed lots of posts with 'workarounds', so I was feeling a bit apprehensive in using it.

    Let me know if it works or not, so that I can know whether I'll have extra steps when I upgrade to the latest version of 3.8. :)
