Thanks in advance,

Well, depends what you mean by "custom actions menu" but you'd have something like:

<a:booleanEvaluator value="#{NavigationBean.currentUser.admin == true}" id="evalA">
<td style="padding-left:4px" width=80>
<%– More actions menu –%>
<a:menu id="actionsMenu" itemSpacing="4" label="#{msg.more_actions}" image="/images/icons/menu.gif" menuStyleClass="moreActionsMenu" style="white-space:nowrap">
<r:actions id="acts_browse" value="browse_actions_menu" context="#{NavigationBean.currentNode}" />
</a:menu>
</td>
</a:booleanEvaluator>
<a:booleanEvaluator value="#{NavigationBean.currentUser.admin == false}" id="evalB">
<td style="padding-left:4px" width=80>
*** Custom non-admin menu goes in here ***
</td>
</a:booleanEvaluator>

Thanks Mike.

It works! I also had to change the ids, because if not the application returned duplicates.
