How do I hide panels based on the User who is logged in? Its for a school management system.
The Admin and teachers would be accessing the panels, and I want the teachers to have a limited access of the system, i.e, some panels will be hidden from them. How do I go about that? I read the docs but couldn't find anything similar expect tenancy but I believe that complicates things and there should be an easier way considering how Filament makes everything easier.

This has been asked multiple times on this forum, can you search the forum.
If you use multiple panels just adjust the
canAccessPanel-method of your User-model to distinguish between the different panels (you have access to the $panel-variable in that method). According to the docs:
Since you have access to the current $panel, you can write conditional checks for separate panels. For example, only restricting access to the admin panel while allowing all users to access the other panels of your app:
@MZX it would be easier to help if you specify the actual example of what do you mean by "some panels will be hidden from them", which panels/resources etc. Because the solution may be pretty individual depending on scenario: restrict panels? use policies? tenancy? etc
Basically, its for a school management app. The admin has access to the entire panel with the options to add different resources. But I would like the teachers to have access to the same panel but with limited options (I don't want them to be able to add/delete/modify some resources, only the admin can)
@PovilasKorop Hopefully I was able to articulate it well
@MZX so yeah, it means you're working within the same panel, then it's a simple version of just using Laravel Policies as the link stated earlier. Or another example specifically for Deleting records: https://filamentphp.com/docs/3.x/panels/resources/deleting-records#authorization
Alright, thanks a lot, I'll look into it
