VW3: is it possible to display a template / part of post only to certain usergroups?

My main wiki page has instructions for wiki writers. This is not relevant for wiki readers and therefore I want to hide the text based upon usergroup permission or on the permission to edit.

Is this possible?

Yes, you can display a template or part of a wiki post to members of only certain usergroups, although I'm not sure at this point if it provides an is_member_of function, or if there is only a way to check if the user has groups exactly equal to the input.

To check the primary group ID:

Code:

[var]USER|user_group_id[/var]==groupid

Thanks!
btw: vbulletin 4.2.2 editor bugs are pretty annoying with the double posts and the editor not working right. Seems vb is getting worse with each release.
