Permissions

[Sebastian]

Hi,

I've added some Permission Levels and wanted to use these permissions to allow or disallow users access to sites/functions etc. I found that the permissions are saved in the database in the table "user_permission_matches".
So, is it the way to have access to the permissions to query this table, like

Code:

$query = $db->query("SELECT * FROM user_permission_matches WHERE user_id = ?", array($num));

?
Or does UserSpice offers some functions for that?
Thanks,
Sebastian
