In the "good old days" I had code in itemdatabound events for repeaters that was:

if (IsEditable) {

objEditImage.Visible = true;

objEditlink.Visible = true;

}

which would display the edit link if you were logged in and in a role with editing. In the 7.x platform the code still works, but only if I click on the Edit Page button. What I want to have happen is that the links are visible if you're logged in and in a role with editing, and not require something else to "arm" the edit mode. My users are complaining they can't add or edit anymore, and it's because the links aren't visible.

In your module control (deriving from DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.PortalModuleBase) you can use:

var hasEditPermissions = DotNetNuke.Security.Permissions.ModulePermissionController.CanEditModuleContent(ModuleConfiguration);

Thank you, very helpful. I'm looking at putting that in module base, would you consider that a good idea?
