Hello,  
I would like to know if it is possible to identify if the members function is active.  
For example, do something like this:

```
{{#if member_feature is active}}
show signup/signin/account button
{{else}}
hide all buttons
{{/if}}

```

So I can decide whether to allow users to register or not simply by enabling the function and automatically hiding the keys.

Hello @giacomosilli

You can use: `{{#if @labs.members}}` … `{{else}}` … `{{/if}}`

Well, perfect then. My mistake, I didn’t find it in the documentation. Thanks.
